Trump Insists U.S. Bombs Destroyed Iran’s Nuclear Sites, Compares Strike to Hiroshima Atomic Bombing

  • President Donald Trump insisted on June 25, 2025, at a NATO summit in The Hague that U.S. strikes totally obliterated Iran’s nuclear sites at Fordow, Natanz, and Isfahan.
  • This assertion comes after a 12-day series of military actions starting on June 13, during which U.S. and Israeli forces conducted strikes intended to stop Iran from developing a nuclear weapon—a goal that Iran has repeatedly rejected.
  • Leaked U.S. intelligence and reports indicate the strikes caused significant damage but did not destroy underground facilities, leaving many centrifuges intact and only delaying Iran's program by months.
  • The White House strongly rejected the intelligence assessment, with Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt describing it as entirely inaccurate, while Trump’s Middle East envoy, Steve Witkoff, dismissed the report as absurd and called for accountability regarding the leak.
  • The strikes and subsequent ceasefire brokered by Trump have set back Iran’s nuclear program and reduced hostilities, though skepticism remains about the true extent of the damage and the conflict’s long-term impact.
