B-2 bombers dropped a number of Massive Ordnance Penetrator bombs -- known as "bunker busters" -- during the U.S. mission over Iran, a U.S. official confirmed.
A number of Tomahawk cruise missiles were also fired at targets inside Iran from a U.S. Navy submarine, the official confirmed.
Following the strikes, Trump addressed the nation, calling it a "spectacular military success."
Trump says Iran 'should have' signed nuclear deal: 'Everyone should immediately evacuate Tehran!'
Posting on his social media platform, President Donald Trump is advising citizens of Tehran, a city with a population of 9.8 million people, to "immediately evacuate."
"Iran should have signed the 'deal' I told them to sign. What a shame, and waste of human life," Trump posted.

"Simply stated, IRAN CAN NOT HAVE A NUCLEAR WEAPON," he posted. "I said it over and over again! Everyone should immediately evacuate Tehran!"
The warning comes as Iran and Israel continue to launch a new wave of missiles at each other and as Trump has publicly urged Iran to get back to the negotiation table and sign a nuclear deal.

US moving additional aircraft carrier to Middle East amid conflict: Officials
The U.S. is moving an additional aircraft carrier to the Middle East, according to U.S. officials, among other U.S. military developments since the start of the conflict between Israel and Iran.
The aircraft carrier USS Nimitz and three destroyers in its strike group are now headed to the Middle East from their current deployment to the Western Pacific, the officials said. The Nimitz is being directed to make its way to the Middle East "without delay," one of the officials said, where it will overlap with the USS Carl Vinson.
In a statement on social media, Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth confirmed that, over the weekend, he "directed the deployment of additional capabilities" to the Middle East. "Protecting U.S. forces is our top priority and these deployments are intended to enhance our defensive posture in the region," he said.
