Watch: Gabbard faces scrutiny over Iran nuclear intelligence claims

AI Summary
US Director of National Intelligence Tulsi Gabbard faced scrutiny before the Senate Intelligence Committee regarding her statements on Iran's nuclear enrichment capabilities. The questioning arose from perceived inconsistencies between her written and oral statements. In her written statement, Gabbard claimed Iran's nuclear enrichment program was "obliterated" and not rebuilt following "Operation Midnight Hammer." However, her oral statement referenced Iran's attempts to recover from damage sustained during the "12 Day War" and non-compliance with IAEA obligations prior to "Operation Epic Fury." Democratic senators pressed Gabbard on this discrepancy, and she attributed the change to saving time. The hearing focused on clarifying the intelligence community's assessment of Iran's nuclear program and its current status.
