<p>WASHINGTON — The pilots who flew into Iran on a mission to bomb the Iranian nuclear facilities will join President Donald Trump at the White House on Friday, The Daily Wire has learned.</p>
<p>The B-2 pilots will be in attendance on Friday at the White House Fourth of July celebrations, two White House officials shared with The Daily Wire. The White House celebration will also include a flyover by B-2 Spirit bombers, the jets that conducted the strikes on Iran earlier this month in Operation Midnight Hammer, according to CBS.</p>
<p>White House Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt <a href="https://www.cbsnews.com/news/iran-mission-pilots-trump-white-house-july-4/">confirmed in a statement</a> that the president &#8220;looks forward to celebrating our nation&#8217;s founding on Friday in the nation&#8217;s capital.&#8221;</p>
<p>&#8220;To join in the celebration, the might of America&#8217;s Air Force will conduct a flyover featuring our state-of-the-art F-22s, B-2s, and F-35s &#8211; the same air capabilities used for the decisive and successful strikes on Iran&#8217;s nuclear facilities,&#8221; Leavitt added.</p>
<p>Trump is expected to speak at the event, and additional personnel from the base where the bombers were based (Whiteman Air Force Base in Missouri) will attend.</p>

<p>During an interview on “Sunday Morning Futures,” Fox News anchor Maria Bartiromo <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/news/pilots-of-b-2-bombers-that-hit-iran-nuclear-sites-coming-to-white-house-trump-says">discussed</a> the &#8220;courageous&#8221; pilots with Trump, and asked the president if he planned to honor them.</p>
<p>“Yes, they’re going to come to the White House,&#8221; Trump said. &#8220;But what you said is right. These people flew 36 hours in a small space, a big plane, but a small spaces mostly occupied by bombs, and they flew so brilliantly.&#8221;</p>
<p>“They hit a target the size of this circle … a little target, they say half the size of a refrigerator door from 50,000 feet up in the air,&#8221; he added. &#8220;Going at a rapid speed, because they’re going very fast when they’re over a pretty rough territory. And they hit it every single time. And then they knocked out two other sites aside from that.”</p>

<p>During a news conference on Operation Midnight Hammer, Joint Chiefs Chairman Dan Caine shared that the B-2 bombers launched from the United States and refueled multiple times while in flight during the trip to Iranian airspace. The bombers struck targets at Fordo and Natanz, and United States submarines fired Tomahawk missiles that hit Isfahan moments later. The B-2 bombers returned home to Missouri after the attack.</p>
<p>“Those pilots went in there with those beautiful planes and the most sophisticated bombs anywhere in the world. Think of it, they can go 30 stories deep into granite. Who would think that’s even possible? And they did obliterate it, it turned out,” Trump said on Sunday.</p>
