The US airstrikes on Iran did not “obliterate” the country’s nuclear programme and only set it back a few months, according to a leaked intelligence assessment that drew a furious response from the White House.
President Trump has claimed that the American strikes on three sites had “completely and totally obliterated” Iran’s nuclear programme.
But an assessment compiled by the Defence Intelligence Agency found that attacks on Iranian nuclear sites at Fordow, Natanz and Isfahan did significant damage without destroying the facilities, it was reported on Monday night.
The agency found that at least some of Iran’s highly enriched uranium needed to create a nuclear bomb was moved before the strikes by US B-2 stealth bombers on Sunday, according to the Associated Press, which cited two anonymous sources familiar with the agency’s classified report...
… The White House press secretary, Karoline Leavitt, called the leak “a clear attempt to demean President Trump and discredit the brave fighter pilots who conducted a perfectly executed mission to obliterate Iran’s nuclear programme”.
She added: “Everyone knows what happens when you drop fourteen 30,000lb bombs perfectly on their targets: total obliteration.”

* I think leaking this info was inappropriate (as it’s Classified), but I understand the frustration that led people to this, to illuminate the lies being told
