Trump vs Intel: Did US strikes really cripple Iran’s nuclear program?
Donald Trump has claimed that US strikes on Iranian nuclear facilities “obliterated” the program. However, a leaked assessment from the US Defence Intelligence Agency suggests the impact was far less significant, merely setting back Iran’s efforts by months.
In Washington, defence analyst Laicie Heeley joins Al Jazeera’s live to unpack the competing narratives. Trump has pointed to Israeli intelligence as the basis for his confidence, even referencing a pending report by Israel and implying that Israeli personnel had inspected the aftermath on the ground. His remarks have raised concerns about whether he disclosed classified Israeli operations.
