What recent airstrike targeted Iran's nuclear facility?
Hitting a big target. I'm Paul Stevens, Fox News. Iran saying it's Natan's nuclear facility has been hit in an airstrike. Lucas Tomlinson from Dubai with the latest on Operation Epic Fury.
Overnight, Natan's getting bombed. That's one of the three nuclear enrichment sites that was hit during Operation Midnight Hammer. It's located 150 miles south of Tehran. That is Iran's main nuclear enrichment site where they enrich uranium-235, that isotope. Not sure we have a periodic table available. But some of the officials I've spoken to about this strike say this is likely to detect if there is enriched uranium in this site. If you bomb the target and the no uranium or radiation, more importantly, detected, that means either you didn't hit it or it's not located there. So expect some strikes on Fordow and Isfahan. Those are the other two sites struck during Midnight Hammer. That could be what's coming up next.
Iran firing two ballistic missiles at a strategic U.S.-U.K. base on the island of Diego Garcia in the Indian Ocean overnight. The family of the missing Alabama student in Spain during spring break says his body has been found. Police say his death was likely an accident.
Local Spanish media say investigators have video showing the 20-year-old walking alone before falling into the water. But police are declining to confirm those local reports. Spanish police do say they believe James Gracie died from a likely accident after ruling out foul play. An autopsy has been performed, but they're waiting on those results. The University of Alabama junior disappeared early Tuesday morning after leaving the popular Choco nightclub in Barcelona. Police recovered his cell phone after arresting another person, though authorities have declined to discuss details about that arrest, and it remains unclear if that's related to Gracie's death or connected to his disappearance.
And that is Fox's Chanley Painter. Gracie's body found two days after his disappearance. America is listening to Fox News.

Air travelers across the U.S. still facing long lines and unpredictable wait times as TSA officers call out in droves, forcing security checkpoint closures. This coming amid a funding holdup for Homeland Security in Congress.
The Senate will take a test vote around 1 p.m. Eastern time today on a Democratic plan to fund DHS, accept ICE and CBP. And it comes after the Senate failed to advance a bill to fund the department a fifth time on Friday. Lawmakers are talking, though. Borders are Tom Homan met with a bipartisan group of lawmakers again yesterday. Republicans say they and the White House have put legislative texts on the table and it's now up to Democrats to respond. But the issue of judicial warrants remains unresolved, which is a key sticking point for them. Meantime, it is another frustrating day at airports across the country as travelers face long lines with no idea as to when the situation will improve. The national call-out rate for TSA workers was more than 10 percent on Wednesday, causing major backups.
And that's Fox's Madeline Rivera. About one-third of TSA officers reportedly called out in Atlanta. Similar shortages at other airports, including Houston. Flash flooding in Hawaii, forcing evacuations and rescues with more than 55 people, 5,500 people, rather, on the North Shore. Told to leave.
Certainly a tough situation out there in Oahu. Rain totals just in the last 24 hours getting anywhere from close to 10 inches up to a foot of total rain. And remember, if you look back over the last two weeks or so, there between the 10th and the 16th, the area saw anywhere from 25 up to 50 inches of rain. So that ground is absolutely saturated. The last 24 hours worth of rain, that obviously just makes the situation a whole lot worse. So some of the worst flooding areas now in Oahu are on the North Shore, where we've seen major flooding reports.
