The United States briefly joined the offensive, reportedly dropping 14 bombs on nuclear sites. Trump later asserted that the operation had neutralized Iran\u2019s nuclear threat and diminished its regional influence.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"\">However, the actual impact of the strikes remains unclear. While the Pentagon has stated that Iran\u2019s nuclear program was delayed by one to two years, a classified intelligence assessment cited by American media suggested the setback may have lasted only a few months.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"\">The military action occurred just days before a scheduled sixth round of nuclear negotiations between Tehran and Washington. Talks, which began in April, have since stalled. Iran has conditioned its return to the table on U.S. guarantees against future military aggression.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"\">Khamenei\u2019s rebuke underscores the deepening rift between the two nations, as diplomatic efforts falter and tensions over nuclear development persist. The 2026 negotiations were seen as a critical juncture in efforts to revive the 2015 nuclear deal, which unraveled following the U.S. withdrawal in 2018.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>TEHRAN, Iran \u2014 Iran\u2019s Supreme Leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei on Monday dismissed claims by U.S. President Donald Trump that American airstrikes in June had destroyed key Iranian nuclear facilities, calling the remarks \u201cimproper, wrong, and bullying.\u201d In a statement published on his official website, Khamenei responded to Trump\u2019s recent comments made during a speech at [&hellip;]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":21519,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"nf_dc_page":"","_jetpack_newsletter_access":"","_jetpack_dont_email_post_to_subs":false,"_jetpack_newsletter_tier_id":0,"_jetpack_memberships_contains_paywalled_content":false,"_jetpack_memberships_contains_paid_content":false,"footnotes":"","jetpack_publicize_message":"","jetpack_publicize_feature_enabled":true,"jetpack_social_post_already_shared":true,"jetpack_social_options":{"image_generator_settings":{"template":"highway","default_image_id":0,"font":"","enabled":false},"version":2},"jetpack_post_was_ever_published":false},"categories":[4,5],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-21516","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-featured","category-international"],"jetpack_publicize_connections":[],"jetpack_featured_media_url":"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.funminews.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/10\/Irans-supreme-leader-Ayatollah-Ali-Khamenei.webp?fit=1200%2C675&ssl=1","jetpack_likes_enabled":true,"jetpack_sharing_enabled":true,"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.funminews.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/21516","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.funminews.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.funminews.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.funminews.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.funminews.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=21516"}],"version-history":[{"count":1,"href":"https:\/\/www.funminews.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/21516\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":21520,"href":"https:\/\/www.funminews.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/21516\/revisions\/21520"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.funminews.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/21519"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.funminews.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=21516"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.funminews.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=21516"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.funminews.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=21516"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
