US intelligence believes Israeli strikes set back Iran's nuclear programme just five to six months: Report US intelligence believes Israeli strikes set back Iran's nuclear programme just five to six months: Report The US intelligence community assesses that Israel’s bombing campaign on Iran has set back its nuclear work by about five to six months, The Wall Street Journal reported on Tuesday.  Israel has been bombing Iran for five days, including striking the Natanz nuclear plant and other facilities.  The Wall Street Journal report said US officials believe Iran's efforts could be delayed further if strikes continue.  Middle East Eye reported before Israel's attack last week that US officials briefed on plans believed Israel could set Iran back a maximum of "a few years". The Wall Street Journal report reaffirmed the US Director of National Intelligence Tulsi Gabbard's public assessment in March that Iran had not decided to build a nuclear bomb.
