U.S. Intel Report Says Iran Could Withstand Blockade 90–120 Days Despite Military Losses


A confidential U.S. intelligence assessment delivered to the White House reportedly concludes that Iran could survive the U.S. blockade for 90 to 120 days, possibly longer, before facing severe economic hardship, The Washington Post reports.

•⁠ ⁠According to the assessment, Iran still retains roughly 75% of its prewar mobile missile launchers and about 70% of its missile stockpile despite weeks of U.S. and Israeli strikes.

•⁠ ⁠Officials reportedly believe Tehran has reopened underground storage facilities, repaired damaged missiles, assembled new ones, and still maintains thousands of drones capable of threatening shipping and U.S. military sites in the region.

•⁠ ⁠The assessment appears to contrast with President Trump’s recent public comments that Iran’s military and economy are collapsing under the blockade and ongoing military pressure.
