Washington discussed using MOAB against Iran
The United States is studying the possibility of using the "MOAB" (Mother of All Bombs) as part of military plans to target Iran's infrastructure and nuclear facilities, should President Trump order strikes against Iran, whether before or after the midterm elections. The bomb, which weighs about 10 tons, is one of the most powerful non-nuclear weapons in the American arsenal. It is typically used for psychological impact and to clear large areas, but it is not capable of deeply penetrating fortified terrains, posing a threat to its effectiveness against buried nuclear sites deep underground, such as the Mons Vasis site. President Trump is exploring complex military options, emphasizing that such measures may be used more for psychological pressure rather than complete strategic destruction. The Trump administration favors non-terrestrial options, amid ongoing discussions about potential Iranian responses and possible military moves.
