Former Pentagon Aide claims US warned Iran about strikes 2 hours before attack
Washington, June 30 (UNI) Former Pentagon adviser, retired US Army Col. Douglas Macgregor claims that Washington warned Iran about strikes on its nuclear facilities two hours before they were carried out. "Just to be clear, The United States warned the Iranians 2 hours prior to the bombing of their nuclear facilities that an attack was coming," Macgregor said on X. Israel launched an operation against Iran on the night of June 13, accusing it of implementing a secret military nuclear program. The targets of aerial bombardments and raids by sabotage groups were nuclear facilities, generals, prominent nuclear physicists, and air bases. Iran rejected the accusations and responded with its own attacks. The two sides exchanged strikes for 12 days, with the US joining in with a one-off attack on Iran's nuclear facilities on the night of June 22. Tehran then launched missile strikes on the US base Al Udeid in Qatar on the evening of June 23, stating that the Iranian side had no intention of further escalation. US President Donald Trump then expressed hope that the strike on the US military base in Qatar had "let off steam" and that a path to peace and harmony in the Middle East was now possible. He also said that Israel and Iran had agreed to a ceasefire, which after 24 hours should formally end the 12-day war. UNI SPUTNIK ARN
