Trump’s special envoy stated that it is necessary to initiate an investigation and punish those responsible for this spill.

The US President’s special envoy for the Middle East, Steve Witkoff, has reacted sharply to the leak of intelligence on the recent strike on Iran. He called it a “treasonous act” and called for an immediate investigation.

“This is outrageous, this is treason, and this should be investigated. Whoever did this should be held accountable,” Witkoff said on Fox News, the BBC reports .

According to him, according to damage assessment reports, all three Iranian nuclear facilities that were struck were completely destroyed.

The intelligence leak has become a new flashpoint in Washington and could also affect Trump’s future electoral positions.

Leaked data on US strikes on Iran – what you need to know

On June 22, the United States launched  strikes on three nuclear sites in Iran . Immediately after the attack, President Trump claimed that all the sites had been destroyed. US Vice President J.D. Vance declared that  Iran would no longer be able to have nuclear weapons .

According to several American media outlets, including CNN and the New York Times, the United States strikes  did not destroy the main components of Tehran’s nuclear program. The attack likely only pushed it back a few months.

Two sources told reporters that Iran’s stockpile of enriched uranium had not been destroyed. One of the sources also said that the centrifuges were largely “intact.” The White House denies this.

Trump is furious about these media reports. He continues to claim that the media reports are untrue and denigrate the American military who carried out the strikes.
