Donald Trump calls ‘obliteration’ an accurate description of damage to Iran’s nuclear facilities

US President Donald Trump objected to Iran’s attempts to underestimate the strikes in Iran’s nuclear facilities on Sunday, and stressed that “destroying” is a correct explanation, although the damage to Iran’s nuclear capabilities is not fully clear.

“As shown with satellite images, all nuclear areas in Iran have been damaged. Obliteration is the right term! The white structure shown is deeply buried on the roof, even its roof is under the ground level and fully protected from the flame. The largest damage was well below the ground level. Bullseye !!!” Trump wrote on real Social.

USA CAUSE CHAIRMAN CHAIRMAN GEN. Dan Caine said market Fordo, Natanz and Isfahan facilities “serious damage and destruction”, but Iran’s nuclear capacity “destroyed” did not go so far as to say.

“The latest war damage will take some time, but the first war damage assessments show that all three sites maintain serious damage and destruction.” He said.

In the meantime, US Defense Minister Pete Hegseth said in a statement on Sunday, while the damage assessment continues, “all of our sensitive ammunition we want to strike and hit the desired effect,” he said.

When I was asked whether Iran is still protecting any nuclear capacity, Caine would be too early for me to comment on what it might be or not, “BDA is still waiting and what may be there.” He said.

War damage assessment or BDA is a military term that expresses the process of evaluating the effects of military operations on a target.

Generally, the scope of the damage contains a physical or functional control beyond visual signs and whether the target can work.

These assessments are usually carried out by intelligence analysts and reconnaissance teams using the data obtained from drones, satellites, radar or ground reports. It helps the commanders decide whether the task has achieved the objectives and whether tracking strikes are needed.
