    US vice president JD Vance praised the overnight US military operation against Iranian nuclear sites, calling it a “testament” to the pilots and other members of American forces.Taking to social media platform X on Sunday, he said, “The operation last night is an incredible testament to American pilots and other service members, from General Caine and General Kurilla on down.”He further added that the president’s senior team completed the mission with flawless coordination, despite media attacks and attempts to stir division. “While the media has attacked the president’s senior team relentlessly, and tried to sow fake division, last night would have been impossible without perfect coordination and discretion from the president’s national security team.”“I’m incredibly proud of them, and I know the president is, too,” he wrote.His comments came after US stealth bombers hit three key nuclear sites in Fordow, Isfahan, and Natanz with powerful bunker-busting bombs, targeting Iran’s main uranium enrichment facilities.Earlier, speaking on NBC News, Vance said, “US is not at war with Iran but at war with its nuclear programme.”He also sought to emphasise that the mission was not aimed at regime change or prolonged conflict. “We do not want to protract this or build this out anymore than it’s already been built out. We want to end their nuclear programme,” he told NBC’s Meet the Press.The strikes, announced by Trump, mark a major escalation in the region following over a week of escalating tensions between Israel and Iran. US and Israeli officials confirmed the use of stealth bombers and a 30,000-pound bunker-buster bomb to reach Iran’s heavily fortified underground sites.
