Analysts say the pattern of destruction suggests the strikes may have targeted a hardened underground structure.

The damage has led to speculation that Northrop B‑2 Spirit stealth bombers could have deployed the 30,000-pound GBU‑57 Massive Ordnance Penetrator (MOP), a bunker-busting bomb designed to penetrate deeply buried and reinforced facilities.

However, the exact type of weapon used in the strike has not been officially confirmed.
