I saw a story a few hours ago (ABC News) about an Iraqi Pilot flying up close to the Iran border and how the U.S. dropped a bunker buster on a significant underground target as a response.

They reported that it happened today but I can’t find any more information on ABC, Fox, CNN, Newsmax, Drudge, Reuters, the AP, or Strategy page.

Anybody have a good source, or did ABC just get too far ahead on this one?
