US EditionTrump, Pentagon Report Clash over State of Iran's Nuclear Program
- On June 21, American B-2 aircraft bombed three Iranian nuclear sites at Fordow, Natanz, and Isfahan, damaging them but not destroying underground facilities.
- The strikes aimed to halt Iran's nuclear program, but reports differ on the extent of damage and intelligence was described as inconclusive by President Trump.
- Satellite imagery showed collapsed entrances to two sites, while many centrifuges and enriched uranium stockpiles were reportedly moved prior to the strikes.
- President Trump repeatedly claimed the strikes "completely obliterated" Iran's nuclear capabilities, while Pentagon and intelligence assessments said the program faced only a setback of a few months.
- The conflicting assessments suggest Iran's nuclear ambitions continue despite damage, and the strikes may have strengthened Iran's resolve while keeping a ceasefire with Israel tenuous but intact.
