A U.S. intelligence assessment released after recent airstrikes on Iranian nuclear facilities indicates that the operations did not fully eradicate Iran's nuclear program. The Defense Intelligence Agency reported that the U.S. strikes, ordered by President Trump, set back Iran's nuclear capabilities by only months, primarily damaging aboveground facilities but failing to eliminate crucial underground centrifuges. This finding contradicts the administration's public statements claiming significant success. A congressional intelligence briefing on the matter was delayed, suggesting potential concerns regarding the effectiveness of the strikes in neutralizing Iran's nuclear weapons program.
A classified U.S. intelligence assessment revealed that recent U.S. strikes against Iranian nuclear facilities only set back Iran's nuclear program by a few months, contrary to official claims.
Reports suggest that the strikes, ordered by President Trump, primarily damaged aboveground facilities and did not completely eliminate the underground centrifuges essential for uranium enrichment.
