President Donald Trump’s claims about successful military strikes on Iranian nuclear sites have been contradicted by preliminary intelligence assessments, continuing his pattern of making false statements to Congress and his own statements at a NATO summit in the Netherlands.
According to MSNBC, the Pentagon’s Defense Intelligence Agency revealed that U.S. airstrikes were not as successful as Trump initially claimed. Their assessment showed that the strikes only managed to delay Iran’s nuclear program by three to six months, rather than causing complete destruction as Trump had previously stated.
