Ceasefire between Iran and Israel holds

WASHINGTON (NEXSTAR) – A ceasefire agreement between Iran and Israel now seems to be holding after President Donald Trump accused both countries of violating it Tuesday.

President Trump is now at the NATO summit touting his work to bring peace to the region, but a new U.S. intelligence report is casting doubt on the success of his strikes against Iran.

“They’re not going to be building bombs for a long time,” said Trump.

President Trump is taking a victory lap at the NATO Summit following Saturday’s strike against Iran’s nuclear facilities.

“This was crucial to really do everything possible to take out the nuclear capability of the Iranians, which NATO has always said Iran should not get its hands on,” said NATO Secretary General Mark Rutte.

The top NATO leader celebrated the U.S. attack, as President Trump maintains it destroyed the sites.

“I believe it was total obliteration,” said Trump.

However, a new U.S. intelligence report says the strikes only set back Iran’s nuclear program by several months suggesting the country moved much of its enriched uranium off site before the strikes.

“We need facts. We need real information,” said Senate Democratic Leader Chuck Schumer (D-N.Y.).

The top two Democrats in Congress are demanding answers after they say the White House cancelled a classified briefing at the last minute.

“Why are Republicans hiding facts and the truth?” asked House Democratic Leader Hakeem Jeffries (D-N.Y.).

They argue President Trump should have never launched the strikes without congressional approval, but Republicans largely defend the move.

“The world is a safer place thanks to the actions of this president and the wonderful work, the outstanding work of our military,” said Rep. Buddy Carter (R-Ga.).

Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth, who is also at the NATO summit, says there is an investigation under way to figure out who leaked that intelligence report.
