Trump Claims Iran Strikes Set Back Nuclear Program

President Donald Trump has claimed that recent U.S. and Israeli strikes have 'obliterated' Iran's key nuclear facilities and set back Tehran's nuclear program by decades, though these assertions remain unconfirmed by Israeli officials and independent experts. Leaked U.S. intelligence and Defense Intelligence Agency assessments suggest the attacks only delayed Iran's nuclear program by a few months, with much enriched uranium likely removed beforehand. The UN nuclear watchdog's head stated the true extent of the damage is unverified until inspectors gain access. Trump has also signaled a willingness to negotiate with Iran and hinted at possible economic relief measures. Military and intelligence experts remain skeptical, urging independent assessment of the situation. The region remains tense with ongoing uncertainty about Iran's nuclear capabilities.
