Seeing this earthquake notification in proximity of Operation Midnight Hammer, I wonder if there are military contingencies for using large weaponry on geological faults in enemy territories as means of starting large scale earthquakes?
The strikes were the first operational use of the GBU-57, Mr. Hegseth said. It is a 30,000-pound guided bomb that contains the explosive power of approximately 5,500 pounds of TNT and is designed to attack deeply buried targets. It can be carried only by B-2 stealth bombers.
The operation used 14 GBU-57 Massive Ordnance Penetrator bombs — often referred to as “bunker busters” — with the first two dropping at 2 a.m. Sunday local time, General Caine said.
