Urgent! Leak reveals that US attack has not destroyed Iranian nuclear program

United States Secretary of Defense, Pete Hegseth, said the FBI has opened an investigation into leaking an intelligence assessment related to recent nuclear attacks on Iran.

“Of course we are conducting a leakage investigation with the FBI now because this information is for internal purposes, battle damage ratings,” Hegseth told journalists. He also stated that media companies would be manipulating the facts.

“CNN and other companies are trying to distort the situation to make the president look bad, when that was a smash hit,” he added.

United States President Donald Trump reaffirmed his version on the results of the attack on the Iranian Nuclear Complex of Fordow and other targets. “After we attacked Fordow, Israel sent its agents to evaluate the situation. They confirmed that Fordow was completely destroyed,” he said.

“I don’t think the Iranians had a chance to evacuate anything from Fordow because we acted very quickly. Bombs hit exactly where they should. It was really a flawless operation. Israel is currently preparing a report on the subject.”

Trump also commented on his social networks about press coverage: “False news: CNN, along with the New York Times failure, have come together in an attempt to challenge one of the most successful military attacks in history. Nuclear facilities in Iran are completely destroyed! Both Times and CNN are being criticized by the public!”

According to CNN information, the leaked content corresponds to an evaluation made by the Pentagon Defense Intelligence Agency (day), based on a report prepared by the Central Command of the United States (Centcom). The document indicates that the bombing only delayed the Iranian nuclear program for a period of a few months.

Sources with knowledge of the assessment reported that Iran’s enriched uranium inventory remains intact and that most centrifuges were not damaged. “Therefore, the assessment (day) is that the US has delayed them perhaps a few months, at most,” a source told CNN.

The White House rejected the data of military intelligence. According to an official statement, the analysis is “completely wrong” and aims to “lower” the president and the pilots responsible for the air operation, described as “perfectly executed”.

Israeli sources consulted by ABC News presented a different assessment. According to these sources, the outcome of the attacks is “really bad” and is still in the calculation phase. The same sources said they did not know how much enriched uranium was transferred before bombing, nor how many centrifuges remain functional.

The Cradle portal also reported that Iranian sources confirmed, on June 25, that the Fordow complex was not destroyed by air attacks. According to these sources, which have access to internal information, centrifuges follow “unharmed”, even after at least a dozen bombs designed to reach underground facilities.

Times of Israel has published that Israeli intelligence continues to update its assessment of damage. A source consulted stated that the Iranian nuclear program was delayed by “several years” but not eliminated.

Iranian state media also manifested itself. According to local authorities, enriched uranium was removed from nuclear facilities, including Fordow, before US attacks over the weekend.

The American attack was described by Trump as one of the most successful in history. However, divergent evaluations on real damage to Iranian nuclear structures continue to feed controversy in the political, military and diplomatic media.

The FBI has not yet released information about the progress of the internal investigation on the leakage of the day report. The investigation seeks to identify how the reserved information came to the press and which agents had access to the content.

The case occurs amid persistent tensions between the United States and Iran, aggravated by disputes on the Iranian nuclear program and the absence of a new containment agreement since the American exit from the Global Joint Action Plan (JCPOA) in 2018.

The Tehran government has reiterated that its nuclear program has peaceful purposes, while Washington and its allies express concern about the possibility of uranium enrichment for military purposes.

There is still no international consensus on the real impact of Washington attacks on the Iranian nuclear program. Multilateral bodies, such as the International Atomic Energy Agency (AIEA), did not officially comment on the destruction of facilities or any technical damage. The entity is responsible for monitoring nuclear programs in the world and usually performs periodic inspections, including in Iran.

The repercussion of the different versions should continue in the coming days, as official reports are available by the governments involved and international nuclear control bodies.
