After the US attacks on Iran‘s nuclear program, President Trump announced that the facilities were destroyed. A report now suggests something else. The attacks are said to have only delayed the nuclear program. The white house contradicts.
According to media reports, the US attacks in Iran have only thrown back Iran’s nuclear program by a few months. The New York Times newspaper and the CNN broadcaster reported on a first secret service assessment. Both media appealed to the report of the Military Secret Service (DIA) reported officials. Accordingly, the attacks from Iran’s weekend could not destroy underground nuclear facilities.
The spokeswoman for the White House, Karoline Leavitt, criticized the publication of the expert opinion classified as “strictly secret”. The assessment was wrong, she wrote on the X. After an attack that the United States had carried out, there was “total annihilation”, everyone knew that. US President Donald Trump also rejected the reports. “The nuclear systems in Iran are completely destroyed!” He said on his online platform Truth Social.
Trump had already spoken immediately after the US attacks that the nuclear facilities in Isfahan, Natans and Fordo had been completely destroyed. We were talking about a death blow to the Iranian nuclear program.
According to CNN only “a few months” thrown back
According to the secret service report, only the entrances are said to have been destroyed on the area built deep into the mountain in Fordo, but the underground buildings themselves are not. The report also assumes that Iran had already moved its existence of enriched uranium to other places before the attacks, as the New York Times continued.
According to CNN, the attack is said to have thrown the Iranian nuclear program “at most by a few months”. The newspaper spoke of less than six months.
Both media emphasized that it was a first report and that further investigations could lead to other conclusions.
