Washington Post: US intelligence community says Iran could withstand Trump’s blockade of Hormuz for months

months

PNN – Contrary to the Pentagon’s assumption, the CIA has reported that Iran has stockpiled essential goods and fuel for a period of “several months” (even in the event of a complete blockade).

According to the report of Pakistan News Network, the Washington Post added: US intelligence satellites have discovered evidence of the movement of goods and energy through land borders and unofficial routes, indicating that Iran’s neighbors are not necessarily cooperating with the US blockade.

According to American media reports, this confidential assessment, which was delivered to the White House, also shows that Iran has retained a significant portion of its missile and drone arsenal despite the conflicts.

The Washington Post noted: A CIA assessment shows that Iran still maintains 70% of its missile arsenal in a fully operational state. 75% of Iran’s mobile launchers are also still intact. These launchers remain hidden from the radar-evading US fighter jets because they can be moved quickly and deployed in underground tunnels.
