The newspaper explained that "the findings of US intelligence contradict the statements of US President Donald Trump's administration on this matter," noting that it had spoken with Washington administration officials and informed sources about the fate of Iran's remaining stockpile of enriched uranium.
The newspaper quoted unidentified officials as saying that the intelligence gathered so far regarding the stockpile does not match the US administration's statements on the matter.
They noted that the sections believed to contain uranium stockpiles at the Natanz nuclear facility targeted by the United States were "damaged" but "not destroyed," contrary to official statements.
Informed sources claimed that US intelligence has not yet reached a definitive conclusion regarding the amount of enriched uranium remaining in Iran's possession.
Following the US attacks, President Donald Trump said that the B-2 attacks on Iran's Fordow, Natanz, and Isfahan nuclear facilities "totally destroyed" the nuclear enrichment facilities.
On June 13, Israel, with US support, launched a 12-day aggression against Iran, targeting military and nuclear sites, civilian facilities, and the assassination of military leaders and nuclear scientists. Iran responded by targeting Israeli military and intelligence headquarters with ballistic missiles and drones.
On June 22, the United States attacked Iranian facilities and claimed to have "ended" its nuclear program. Tehran responded by bombing the U.S. Al-Udeid base in Qatar. On June 24, Washington declared a ceasefire between Tel Aviv and Tehran.
There is ambiguity and inconsistency regarding the extent and repercussions of the damage to Iran's nuclear facilities. Iranian President Masoud Pezeshkian has simply stated that the Israeli-American aggression against his country did not achieve its goals, without providing further explanation.
