Trump administration claims destruction of Tehran's military capabilities

The Trump administration is emphasizing its claims that Iranian military capabilities were destroyed in American-Israeli strikes before the ceasefire began.
These claims differ from what U.S. intelligence assessments indicate regarding the actual damage to Iranian infrastructure.
The statements come amid political debate over the effectiveness of the military campaign against Iran.
The Trump administration asserts that U.S.-Israeli strikes destroyed Iranian military capabilities, but secret American intelligence assessments indicate that the Iranian military and missile systems did not sustain the alleged losses.
The discrepancy between the official narrative and intelligence facts affects the credibility of American policy toward Iran and may determine the course of escalation or de-escalation in the region in the coming weeks. Ambiguity over the strikes' effectiveness means the possibility of additional military operations that could impact market and regional stability overall.
