Israeli Sources Dismiss Trump’s Claims About Iran Nuclear Facilities Destruction

President Donald Trump claimed that Iran’s nuclear facilities were completely obliterated by precise American airstrikes carried out last Sunday (June 22, 2025) using advanced stealth bombers. During a press briefing at the NATO Summit on June 25, 2025, Trump stated that Israel had sent intelligence operatives to assess the damage post-strike as part of Operation ‘Midnight Hammer.’ However, Israeli officials contradicted Trump’s assertions via Israeli radio, stating they have no knowledge of any operation conducted after the U.S. strike on Fordo. They emphasized it is too early to confirm the full extent of the damage and questioned the effectiveness of the attacks. An Iranian Foreign Ministry spokesperson confirmed significant damage but offered no specifics. Trump warned that if Iran restarts its nuclear program, Israel will undoubtedly strike again, asserting that Iran does not want to resume uranium enrichment due to recent events.
