(April 13) About 8 am pt., a 21,000 pound bomb was dropped in Afghanistan, an event that changes the status as to the American military involvement against our enemies. The bomb has a blast radius of over a mile, and is detonated above ground.
The bomb has an official designation, GBU-43. In common terms, the bomb is called "MOAB," for "mother of all bombs." It is meant to destroy tunnel systems in Afghanistan. Trump has given the military authority to manage the war effort, a huge change of policy, away from the micro-management of an illiterate Barack Obama (illiterate as to fighting and winning wars).
