Pentagon Report Sparks Debate Over Damage to Iran’s Nuclear Program

A debate over the American airstrikes on Iran is escalating after President Donald Trump disputed an intelligence report that found the attack he ordered had only a limited impact on the Islamic Republic’s nuclear program, even though the assessment came from the Pentagon.

“The nuclear sites in Iran are completely destroyed,” Trump said on Truth Social. He said CNN and the New York Times, which first reported the intelligence findings on Tuesday, “have teamed up in an attempt to demean one of the most successful military strikes in history.”
