How did the B2 Bomber achieve yaw

Question

I came across this diagram of the B2. I was wondering how it achieved yaw. If I'm correct usually the rudder on the tail would do this, but the B2 does not have a tail. Does it have no need for yaw, or does something else act as the tail?

It uses differential air brakes. – user3528438 Jun 30 '20 at 18:22 — user3528438, Jun 30 '20 at 18:22

They use differential breaking. The elevons are split, and can open up both above and below the wing to increase drag on one side, yawing the plane.
