Former President Donald Trump<\/strong> has strongly denied a new U.S. intelligence assessment that downplays the effectiveness of recent military strikes on Iran\u2019s nuclear facilities. In a Truth Social post, Trump claimed that all three major sites \u2014 Fordow, Natanz, and Isfahan \u2014 were \u201ccompletely destroyed\u201d during the June 21 operation, arguing it would take Iran years to rebuild.<\/p>\n

The operation, named \u201cOperation Midnight Hammer,\u201d<\/strong> was launched in response to escalating tensions between Iran and Israel. Trump administration officials, including Pentagon spokesperson Sean Parnell, insisted that the strikes were highly successful, delaying Iran\u2019s nuclear capabilities by one to two years. Parnell criticized media reports citing that only the Fordow site was significantly damaged, calling them \u201cFake News.\u201d<\/p>\n

The Defense Department<\/strong> maintains that the strikes, which included B-2 bombers and Tomahawk missiles, effectively neutralized all targeted sites. In contrast, the intelligence community, particularly the Defense Intelligence Agency (DIA), reportedly issued a lower-confidence assessment suggesting only minimal delays to Iran\u2019s program.<\/p>\n

Meanwhile, Secretary of State Marco Rubio<\/strong> and European diplomats from France, Germany, and the U.K. have agreed to set a late August deadline<\/strong> for reviving a nuclear deal with Iran. If Iran fails to comply, the \u201csnapback\u201d mechanism \u2014 reinstating all U.N. sanctions lifted under the 2015 nuclear deal \u2014 will be triggered.<\/p>\n

Iran has responded defiantly, rejecting the legal basis for snapback sanctions and threatening to withdraw from the Nuclear Non-Proliferation Treaty<\/strong>. European leaders plan to intensify talks in the coming weeks to prevent the snapback and de-escalate nuclear tensions.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
