The US special mission to Steve Witkoff in the Middle East said on Fox News “Ingraham’s Angle” on Tuesday that it would be “nearly impossible” for the US to “revive” the nuclear weapons program on a site that hit Saturday.
Legacy Media Outlet after US strikes over Natanz, Isfahan and Fordor’s Iranian nuclear weapons program sites It has been reported It probably only reverted for a few months, as the hit didn’t destroy the core components of the program. Fox’s Laura Ingraham pressed envoys for assessment of the attack while asking Witkoff about early reports.
“So, your conclusion is that after seeing what you saw, Iran could not resume its nuclear enrichment program within a few months?” Ingraham asked.
“I can’t think of that,” Witkov replied. “Conversion facilities that many people are not aware of, you need to stop the initial concentration process and complete the concentration process. Once you reach 90%, you need to metalize the material and shape it into a round bowl. You’ve taken it out.”
President Donald Trump announced on Saturday that the US strike against the true social and three Iranian nuclear weapons sites was “very successful,” adding that it received a “full payload of bombs” on its target. According to Witkov, Natantz’s ground facilities were “completely destroyed” by the US bunkerbuster bomb, and Isfahan’s underground facilities are “contents” before adding that there is no doubt that Fordau’s site has also been “expunged.” (Related: Joy Reed suggests that Iran may “satise” the Middle East with its nuclear weapons)

“Additionally, the nuclear reactor was viewed as a raw data in the way that, as I said, two at the Natantz in Fordow, all three of them, if not all, of all, of the most destroyed of most centrifuges in a way that it is almost impossible to revive the program for my views and many other experts.”
However, on Tuesday, legacy media outlets such as Reuters, New York Times and CNN Sources familiar with the findings reported that the strike only caused minimal damage and that they claimed that if Iran decides to hurry up the program, they could build a nuclear bomb in about three months.
When asked about leaks from the Trump administration, Witkoff told Ingraham that he should investigate who is responsible and what he calls his actions “rebellious.”
“Needless to say, that kind of information, whatever it is, whatever it comes up, is outrageous. It’s offensive, so it should be investigated and anyone who does it should be held responsible,” Witkoff said.
“It can hurt your future life. This leak is completely unacceptable, but I’ve read all the damage assessment reports from not only our government but from other governments, so let’s give it to you,” Witkov said. “So, in a way, reports suggest that we didn’t achieve our goals are totally ridiculous.”
Just two days after the US strike, Iran retaliated on Monday by attacking U.S. Air Force Base in Qatar. In a series of posts on the True Society, Trump revealed that Iran had warned him about the hit in advance, confirming that there were no US casualties and minimal damage to the base.
By Monday evening, the president also announced that a ceasefire had reached between Iran and Israel, calling for both countries to be peaceful and respectful once it begins.
On Tuesday, Iran reportedly fired a missile to break the ceasefire, urging Israel to counterattack. In response, while speaking with White House reporters, Trump said, “After a long fight, I don’t know what they’re doing.”
