CIA says Iran’s nuclear program ‘severely damaged’ by U.S. strikes

CIA Director John Ratcliffe said Wednesday credible intelligence indicated that Iran’s nuclear program was “severely damaged” in recent U.S. airstrikes and that several key sites were “destroyed.”

A Defense Intelligence Agency initial assessment leaked on Tuesday found that the U.S. bombing of three Iranian nuclear sites may have set back the country's nuclear program by only several months, a more limited impact than President Donald Trump stated after the strikes.
