The report indicates that while B-2 bombers dropped 14 bunker-busting bombs, the strikes only damaged entrances
A new US intelligence report reveals that last weekend’s US strikes on Iran’s nuclear sites—Natanz, Isfahan, and Fordow—delayed the Middle Eastern country’s nuclear progress by just a few months.
The preliminary report contradicts President Donald Trump’s claim that the sites were destroyed.
The findings from the Defense Intelligence Agency indicate that while B-2 bombers dropped 14 bunker-busting bombs and Tomahawk missiles hit targets, the strikes only damaged entrances and failed to destroy underground facilities.
Experts believe Iran moved key materials beforehand and can still enrich uranium.
Meanwhile, Trump on Tuesday criticized both Israel and Iran, just hours after announcing a ceasefire he claimed would “go forever.” He accused both nations of violating the truce, stating that they had lost control of their forces.
President Trump said he told Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu to call back fighter jets after Israel struck Tehran, prompting Iran to retaliate and kill four Israelis.
Trump warned Israel not to bomb Iran again, adding, “Nobody will be hurt, the Ceasefire is in effect!”
The back-and-forth attacks follow US strikes on Iran and an Iranian missile launch on a US base in Qatar. Tensions remain high.
