Early US intelligence report suggests US strikes only set back Iran’s nuclear program by months: Report
- A U.S. intelligence report issued on Monday found that weekend airstrikes only set back Iran's nuclear program by a few months, not obliterating it as claimed.
- The report contradicted President Trump and Prime Minister Netanyahu, who said their strikes completely destroyed Iran's nuclear sites at Fordo, Natanz, and Isfahan.
- The strikes damaged Iran’s nuclear infrastructure and forced some uranium relocation, but centrifuges largely remained intact and Iran retained enriched uranium stockpiles near weapons-grade levels.
- Trump described the intelligence as "very inconclusive" at a NATO summit, dismissed media reports as "scum," and the White House called the intelligence assessment "flat-out wrong."
- The assessment implies Iran may rebuild its program quickly and escalate covert enrichment, while U.S. officials express hopes to restart negotiations to end Iran's nuclear ambitions.
