Questions swirl in DC after US attacks on Iran’s nuclear facilities
Reporting from the White House, Washington, DC, US
Broader Washington is asking questions, given that most of the consensus is that the satellite imagery of the damage from the US strikes has been inconclusive.
The US president is set to hold a national security briefing with his security team at 17:00 GMT.
We know that there are a number of issues that are troubling the White House.
There is a question about where the enriched uranium that was stored at Fordow has moved to, given the fact that there are wide reports that that was what happened prior to the US strikes.
Also, there is another about what Iran’s response or retaliation looks like. Could it be targeting the bases in the Middle East? And the 40,000 US soldiers that are stationed there, as well as their families and American citizens, who have been given a high alert warning to be vigilant?
And there has also been a heightened alert here in the United States, as well as extra vigilance with regard to cybersecurity as well as infrastructure.
