CORRECTED: Israel says 'still early' to assess damage to Iran nuclear sites
Jerusalem, June 25 (AFP) Jun 25, 2025
Israel's military said on Wednesday it was "still early" to assess the damage caused to Iran's nuclear sites, a day after a ceasefire ended 12 days of war between the longtime foes.

"It is still early to assess the results of the operation," Israeli military spokesman Brigadier General Effie Defrin said in a televised press conference, after US intelligence services reportedly concluded that American strikes set back the Iranian nuclear programme by several months.

"I believe we have delivered a significant hit to the nuclear programme, and I can also say that we have delayed it by several years," said Defrin.
