President Donald Trump is standing by his claim to have completely destroyed three Iranian nuclear facilities over the weekend, despite a U.S. intelligence assessment that says the attack only inflicted enough damage to set Iran’s nuclear weapons program back by a few months.
Speaking with NATO Secretary-General Mark Rutte in The Hague, Trump was asked to respond to media reports about a leaked Defense Intelligence Agency analysis suggesting that the 30,000 bunker-buster bombs dropped by B-2 planes did not destroy the underground Fordow enrichment facility, where Iran was feared to be enriching uranium to weapons-grade purity.
