WASHINGTON (AP) — A series of newly released images from the White House offers a rare glimpse inside the Situation Room during a crucial military decision-making moment. The photos, shared via the White House’s X account on Saturday, depict President Donald Trump overseeing a mission that successfully targeted three Iranian nuclear enrichment sites.
In the striking visuals, Trump, donning his signature red "Make America Great Again" hat, is prominently featured alongside high-ranking officials, including Vice President JD Vance, Secretary of State Marco Rubio, and Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth. These images echo historical moments captured during past administrations, such as Barack Obama’s watch during the Osama bin Laden raid.
As tension filled the room, Trump was seen both seated with his advisors and moving about, engaged in discussions. Various states of focus are captured; while some officials appear deep in thought, others exhibit animated exchanges. The Situation Room has undergone significant renovations since Trump’s last term, enhancing its operational capabilities.
These images exemplify the intense environment and collaborative effort involved in national security decisions, reinforcing the gravity of each moment captured.
