US Strikes on Iran Did Not Destroy Iran Nuclear Sites — US Intel Assessment Reportedly Finds

U.S. airstrikes in Iran did not destroy key components of the country’s nuclear facilities as originally confirmed by President Donald Trump’s administration.

In an exclusive report from CNN, three sources briefed on intelligence of the operation claimed that the damage done to the Iran’s nuclear program “likely only set it back by months.”

The attack, named Operation Midnight Hammer, targeted multiple facilities in Iran in an effort to prevent the country from manufacturing nuclear weapons. Using B-2 bombers, American forces dropped more than a dozen GBU-57 bombs — known as “bunker busters” — to get to Iran’s underground facilities.

While Trump and other administration officials praised the operation as an overwhelming success that will render Iran incapable of continuing its nuclear program, early intelligence dictates that may not be the case.

The report continued:

Two of the people familiar with the assessment said Iran’s stockpile of enriched uranium was not destroyed. One of the people said the centrifuges are largely “intact.”

“So the (DIA) assessment is that the US set them back maybe a few months, tops,” this person added.

The White House acknowledged the existence of the assessment but said they disagreed with it.

In a statement obtained by CNN, White House Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt called the report “flat-out wrong” and said the alleged leaker was an “anonymous, low-level loser in the intelligence community.”
