The First 24 Hours: Operation Epic Fury and Iran's Retaliation
On February 28, 2026, the United States and Israel launched coordinated strikes against Iran's nuclear facilities in what military planners called Operation Epic Fury. Within hours, Iran activated its retaliation doctrine, targeting U.S. bases across the Middle East and threatening Strait of Hormuz shipping lanes.
This episode reconstructs the first 24 hours of the operation using Pentagon briefings, satellite imagery analysis, and CENTCOM communications, tracking both the strike sequence and Iran's multi-front response.
