U.S. mulls largest bomb as Iran vows ongoing resistance

CNN reported that the U.S. military is considering options to strike Iran, including the use of the "Mother of All Bombs" (GBU-43/B), one of the largest non-nuclear bombs they possess, weighing approximately 21,600 pounds (9,800 kilograms). This weapon has not been used inside Iran before, but it was deployed in Afghanistan in 2017. This comes amid rising tensions in the region, as Iran continues to strengthen its defenses, while Tehran has vowed to persist in resisting pressure, amid escalating Houthi attacks on Saudi Arabia and tensions in the Gulf. There is pressure on the U.S. administration to demonstrate progress toward its objectives in the Middle East before the midterm elections.
