What did the US officials say?
In a press briefing, Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth and Joint Chief President Dan Can not give a clear answer to President Trump’s claim that he had completely destroyed atomic sites. He said that initial reports have caused severe damage and destruction at three sites by the Air Force B-2 bombers and the Navy’s Tomahawk missiles. The main target – Iran’s Fordo uranium enrichment plant – in the satellite photographs of Iran showed several deep holes due to a dozen 30,000 pounds of bunker -bombs dropped by the United States. Initial reports of the Israeli army suggest that the site was badly damaged, but was not completely destroyed.
880 pound uranium removed
However, according to NYT report, two Israeli officials said that there is also enough evidence to show that Iran had taken equipment and uranium from the site in recent times. In addition, due to the recent threats of Trump, he removed 400 kg or about 880 pounds rich in 60% purity or about 880 pounds. It is slightly lower than 90% that is commonly used in nuclear weapons. Rafael Mariano Gersi, head of the International Atomic Energy Agency, had told the United Nations Inspectors that his team had last seen the fuel about a week before Israel started an attack on Iran. But he said on CNN that “Iran has not kept any secret that he has protected this material.”

America is closely monitoring the situation
Trump had been discussing the US participation for several days and directed his press secretary to present a two-week deadline from the briefing room in recent times. But according to CNN report, he was bowing towards joining Israel’s military operation in private discussions with senior employees, as his messenger Steve Witchoff was still making diplomatic efforts.
