⭕️ CNN: A classified US intelligence assessment has reportedly found that US strikes on Iran’s nuclear facilities did not destroy the country’s nuclear program — despite President Trump’s claims of “total obliteration.”
Key findings from the Defense Intelligence Agency (DIA):
– Iran’s enriched uranium stockpile is undamaged
– Centrifuges remain largely intact
– Strikes mainly hit aboveground structures, not underground cores
– Fordow, Natanz, and Isfahan were all struck, but deep underground infrastructure survived
– Tomahawk missiles were used on Isfahan, instead of bunker busters, due to its extreme depth
– The impact was limited mostly to power infrastructure and aboveground processing facilities
– Setback estimated at only a few months
Trump, Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth, and other officials insist the mission was a success — but even weapons experts and satellite imagery analysts say the core nuclear capabilities survived.
Meanwhile, Trump canceled classified briefings to Congress, sparking outrage among lawmakers.
White House press secretary Karoline Leavitt told CNN in a statement:
“This alleged assessment is flat-out wrong and was classified as ‘top secret’ but was still leaked to CNN by an anonymous, low-level loser in the intelligence community. The leaking of this alleged assessment is a clear attempt to demean President Trump, and discredit the brave fighter pilots who conducted a perfectly executed mission to obliterate Iran’s nuclear program. Everyone knows what happens when you drop fourteen 30,000 pound bombs perfectly on their targets: total obliteration.”
