Pentagon releases video of B-2 bombers involved in 'Operation ...
Code-named "Operation Midnight Hammer," the top-secret U.S. precision attack on Iran's nuclear facilities was the largest strike using B2 bombers in history.
abcnews.comHere’s the latest I can provide based on recent reporting up through mid-2025:
- Multiple B-2 stealth bombers were reported traveling from Whiteman Air Force Base, Missouri, toward Guam in the Western Pacific as tensions rose in the Middle East and discussions about potential U.S. action against Iran intensified. These movements occurred ahead of public decisions from U.S. leadership on possible strikes or military escalations.[1][4][5]
- Several outlets described the deployment as a show of force and strategic signaling, with officials refraining from publicly confirming operational plans or imminent strikes at the time of initial reports.[4][5][1]
- Coverage also noted that some reports framed the move as part of broader U.S. military posture in the region, while emphasizing that an actual operation had not been publicly authorized or disclosed in detail.[5][1][4]
If you’d like, I can pull more contemporary sources and summarize today’s status, including any official Pentagon statements or U.S. government updates. I can also provide a brief map of the deployment routes and typical B-2 capabilities (payload, range, and bunker-buster options) with citations.
