Pentagon Says Iran's Nuclear Program Set Back 1-2 Years
- On June 20-21, the U.S. military launched Operation Midnight Hammer, using B-2 bombers to strike Iran's nuclear sites at Natanz, Fordow, and Isfahan.
- This attack aimed to degrade Iran's nuclear program, which Pentagon officials and allies assess was set back by one to two years, although a low-confidence report suggested only months.
- Chief Pentagon spokesman Sean Parnell stated the targeted facilities have been completely obliterated, and Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth said the bombs hit precisely as planned.
- International Atomic Energy Agency head Rafael Grossi said the damage was severe but not total and Iran could resume uranium enrichment in months; Trump disputed the report, attacking media coverage sharply.
- The strikes' setback to Iran's nuclear ambitions may enhance regional stability, but Iran retains capabilities to rebuild, and intelligence assessments vary on the program's exact status.
