U.S. airstrikes in Iran, dubbed Operation Midnight Hammer, aimed to disrupt the country's nuclear program but reportedly only set back its efforts by a few months. While the Trump administration touted the operation as a major success, sources indicate that key components, including Iran's enriched uranium stockpile and intact centrifuges, were not destroyed. White House officials acknowledged dissenting intelligence assessments but dismissed them as inaccurate, provoking significant discussions about the effectiveness of the airstrikes on Iran's nuclear ambitions.
The damage done to Iran's nuclear program likely only set it back by months, contradicting claims from the Trump administration about a successful operation.
While Trump praised Operation Midnight Hammer as a success, early intelligence indicates Iran's stockpile of enriched uranium remains largely intact.
