US and Israel Drop MOABs on Iran and Hezbollah Targets

Recent reports from unconfirmed sources, including local Iranian journalists and social media discussions, claim that the United States deployed a GBU-43/B Massive Ordnance Air Blast (MOAB) bomb against an underground ballistic missile production complex in Qods, central Iran. This weapon, often dubbed the “Mother of All Bombs,” is the most powerful non-nuclear explosive in the U.S. arsenal, weighing 21,600 pounds and capable of producing a devastating blast radius extending up to one mile. The alleged strike is said to align with the ongoing U.S.-Israeli Operation Epic Fury, which began on February 28, 2026, targeting Iran’s missile infrastructure to degrade its capabilities amid escalating tensions. While official U.S. statements emphasize the use of B-2 bombers dropping 2,000-pound bunker-busters on deeply buried sites, these rumors suggest a escalation to MOAB for surface-level destruction of fortified facilities, though experts note the bomb’s limitations against deeply entrenched targets.

Amid heightened conflict in the region, unverified accounts on platforms like X have circulated claims that the Israel Defense Forces (IDF) deployed a GBU-43/B MOAB on a Hezbollah target in Lebanon on the night of March 11, 2026. The blast, equivalent to 11 tons of TNT, was purportedly aimed at command centers or weapons depots in the southern suburbs of Beirut, known as Dahiyeh, a Hezbollah stronghold. Official IDF announcements confirm intense airstrikes on multiple Hezbollah sites, including headquarters and arms storage, using fighter jets to drop over 250 bombs in a single wave, but make no mention of MOAB usage. These operations follow Hezbollah’s rocket and drone attacks on Israel, escalating the proxy front in the broader U.S.-Iran confrontation, with Lebanese media reporting widespread destruction but attributing it to conventional munitions rather than the massive MOAB.

Speculative reports and online discussions suggest that additional MOAB deployments are imminent against Iranian targets until Tehran signals surrender, as part of a strategy to force regime capitulation by dismantling its military infrastructure. Sources point to U.S. and Israeli forces intensifying strikes on missile production and storage sites, with White House statements indicating a shift toward complete dismantlement of Iran’s ballistic capabilities. While no official confirmation exists for further MOAB use, proponents of these claims argue it would accelerate the depletion of Iranian defenses, though Iranian officials and analysts counter that such tactics only harden resistance, with no evidence of impending negotiations or ceasefire pleas from the U.S. The potential for more such bombs underscores the high-stakes nature of the conflict, where non-nuclear escalation could reshape regional power dynamics.
Breaking news: The U.S. has reportedly unleashed the Mother of All Bombs—a 21,600-pound behemoth with a one-mile blast radius—on an Iranian missile complex. Meanwhile, Israel’s IDF just dropped another MOAB on Hezbollah in Lebanon, packing 11 tons of TNT fury. Expect more strikes until Iran waves the white flag!
