PANews reported on April 17 that US President Trump posted on social media, stating, "The United States will receive all the nuclear 'dust' (i.e., nuclear material) produced by our great B-2 bombers—without any monetary transaction in any form or manner. This deal is also unrelated to Lebanon, but the United States will work alone with Lebanon to properly handle the Hezbollah situation. Israel will no longer bomb Lebanon; they are prohibited from doing so by the United States." Trump used the term "nuclear dust" to refer to highly enriched uranium. Trump's statement praised the United States for destroying Iran's nuclear program through its powerful military force (B-2 bombers). It is believed that this highly enriched uranium was buried deep underground after the US military strikes on the Fordow and Natanz nuclear facilities last June. This nuclear material has been in Iranian control and has consistently been a significant source of tension between the Trump administration and Tehran.
