US Intelligence Disputes Trump's Claims on Iran Strike
A US intelligence report from the Defense Intelligence Agency indicates that Iran’s nuclear program was only setback a few months by US strikes, contrary to President Trump's claims of complete destruction. The White House disputes this assessment, calling it an attempt to undermine the president.

An early intelligence report from the US Defense Intelligence Agency suggests that strikes on Iran's nuclear facilities have only temporarily set back the program, contradicting claims by President Donald Trump.
The report, shared by anonymous sources, challenges assertions by Trump and Israeli Prime Minister Netanyahu regarding the complete destruction of Iran's nuclear capabilities following US air strikes.
Despite the report's findings, the White House dismissed the assessment as inaccurate, defending the strike's effectiveness and criticizing the leak as an effort to diminish the President's achievements.
