The White House has condemned the release of classified material, with Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt calling the reporting \u201cshameful\u201d and claiming the Iranian regime cannot accurately assess damage \u201cunder hundreds of feet of rubble.\u201d She insisted Iran\u2019s nuclear weapons program \u201cis over.\u201d<\/p>\n<p data-start=\"1223\" data-end=\"1516\">The Pentagon and FBI have confirmed an ongoing investigation to identify the source of the leaks, and President Trump recently suggested journalists might be pressured to reveal their sources. \u201cThey could find out easily,\u201d Trump told <em data-start=\"1457\" data-end=\"1467\">Fox News<\/em>, indicating possible steps to compel disclosure.<\/p>\n<p data-start=\"1518\" data-end=\"1867\">Despite conflicting intelligence, a clearer picture is beginning to emerge. Iran\u2019s foreign minister Abbas Araghchi acknowledged significant damage to three nuclear facilities, according to <em data-start=\"1707\" data-end=\"1727\">The New York Times<\/em>. On Iranian state TV, Araghchi said the sites had suffered \u201cserious damage,\u201d with ongoing assessments by Iran\u2019s Atomic Energy Organization.<\/p>\n<p data-start=\"1869\" data-end=\"2197\">Opinions remain divided. While intercepted communications and the DIA report suggest limited impact, other sources\u2014including the CIA, Israeli military, and international nuclear monitors\u2014report extensive destruction. A retired U.S. Air Force general told <em data-start=\"2124\" data-end=\"2145\">Straight Arrow News<\/em> that it may take months to fully assess the damage.<\/p>\n<p data-start=\"2199\" data-end=\"2540\">Meanwhile, Iran\u2019s Supreme Leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei declared \u201cvictory\u201d over the U.S. and Israel, claiming America intervened directly to save its ally but achieved nothing. Former Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth criticized the media for \u201ccheering against Trump\u201d and undermining military success, calling the ongoing leaks \u201cirresponsible.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Leaked Intelligence Undermines White House Claims on Iran Airstrikes New leaks from anonymous U.S. officials are raising questions about the true impact of recent U.S. airstrikes on&#8230; <\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":7772,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[2],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-7771","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-news"],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v24.4 -
