Director of National Intelligence Tulsi Gabbard mentioned Thursday throughout a listening to in entrance of the House intelligence committee that the American and Israeli goals through the navy marketing campaign in Iran are usually not the identical.
“The objectives that have been laid out by the president are different from the objectives that have been laid out by the Israeli government,” Gabbard mentioned.
“We can see through the operations that the Israeli government has been focused on disabling the Iranian leadership. The president has stated that his objectives are to destroy Iran’s ballistic missiles launching capability, their ballistic missile production capability, and their navy,” she added.
Mojtaba Khamenei was severely injured in an Israeli strike, Gabbard confirmed, though present standing stays “unclear.” According to the director, it’s an “accurate assessment” that the U.S. presently lacks the intelligence it held 60 days in the past relating to the places of the Iranian management.
