CIA Blows Whistle on Iranian Nuclear Programme Damage

The US intelligence community has revealed that Iran’s nuclear programme has been severely damaged, according to a statement from the CIA director. This comes as tensions between Iran and Israel continue to simmer, despite a ceasefire agreement. The Trump administration had previously claimed the strikes set back the programme by “only a few months”. However, the CIA contradicts this assertion, stating that the damage is more extensive. The US President himself described the conflict as akin to two children in a schoolyard, while his remarks on the topic drew criticism from NATO Secretary General Mark Rutte. Israel’s military confirmed ground commandos were involved in Iranian territory during the 12-day conflict, and Iran has since reported the death of a top military commander due to Israeli strikes.
