Was Trump right?

5 Live listeners talk to Nicky Campbell...

President Donald Trump says the US has carried out a "successful" bombing attack on three nuclear sites in Iran and they have been "obliterated".

On Sunday, the Pentagon said it will take time to fully assess the effect of the attack though it appears all the sites sustained "extremely severe damage".

Israel says they were in "full co-ordination" with the US in planning the strikes. Iranian officials have confirmed the facilities were struck but denied it had suffered a major blow.

The strikes mark a significant escalation in the ongoing war between Iran and Israel.
