US intelligence agencies reported that recent cyberattacks have caused limited new damage to Iran's nuclear program. The attacks, attributed to Western intelligence, targeted infrastructure and data systems. Iran has not publicly acknowledged the damage, while US officials have confirmed the findings.

US intelligence sources, citing multiple outlets, stated that cyber operations have caused limited new damage to Iran's nuclear program. The attacks, which are believed to be the result of Western intelligence efforts, targeted key infrastructure and data systems within Iran's nuclear facilities. The exact nature and extent of the damage remain undisclosed by Iranian officials, who have not commented on the allegations. The US intelligence community has confirmed the findings through multiple channels, including the Straits Times, Haaretz, and Reuters.
