WASHINGTON: US President Donald Trump on Saturday (Jul 19) insisted that the US bombing of Iranian nuclear services “fully destroyed” the websites after a report said that some had largely survived.
On his Reality Social platform, Trump reiterated his frequent declare that “all three nuclear websites in Iran had been fully destroyed and/or OBLITERATED”.
He stated it will “take years to deliver them again into service and, if Iran needed to take action, they might be a lot better off beginning anew, in three totally different areas”.
US bomb and missile assaults struck Iran’s controversial nuclear program on Jun 22, hitting the uranium enrichment facility at Fordow, south of Tehran, in addition to nuclear websites in Isfahan and Natanz.
The bombings, carried out concurrently an Israeli marketing campaign in opposition to Iranian nuclear and navy infrastructure, had been billed by Washington as a knockout blow to a years-long covert effort to construct nuclear weapons.
Iran insists it has not tried to weaponise its civilian nuclear energy program.
