A recent US intelligence report reveals that the strikes on Iran’s nuclear sites caused limited damage, delaying the country’s nuclear program by only a few months. This assessment challenges earlier claims that the US had obliterated Iran’s nuclear capabilities. Satellite images show damage to Iran’s Isfahan, Fordow, and Natanz uranium facilities, but key components of the program remain intact.
The Defense Intelligence Agency’s findings suggest that while the attacks sealed off entrances to some facilities, underground structures were not collapsed. President Donald Trump had earlier declared the sites were destroyed, but the report indicates the setback is less severe than claimed.
This development comes amid a fragile ceasefire between Israel and Iran brokered by the US, which appears to hold after a 12-day conflict marked by airstrikes and missile attacks. Both Iran and Israel have signaled their intention to honor the truce for now.
The broader international community watches closely as talks around the ceasefire and future nuclear agreements unfold. The US and its allies continue to monitor the situation and assess the implications for regional stability.
Key points from the report include:
- Damage limited to surface-level facilities at Isfahan, Fordow, and Natanz
- Underground nuclear structures remain operational
- Delay in nuclear program estimated at only a few months
- Ceasefire between Israel and Iran remains intact following recent conflict
