President Trump hailed the US bombing of Iran’s nuclear sites a success, a US Defence Intelligence Agency report counters that the attacks only set Iran’s programme back by a few months, not obliterate it.

A handful of ongoing stories dominate the UK newspaper front pages this morning, with the news that the prime minister is set to press ahead with his contentious welfare cuts, despite a growing rebellion from Labour MPs.

Many of the papers lead on the “landmark deal” which will see the UK buy 12 new nuclear-carrying jets from the United States. Several papers pick up on the prime minister’s comments that the UK must be prepared for war, whilst other papers note the purchase of planes carrying nuclear bombs is the biggest expansion of the deterrent since the Cold War.

A handful of papers report on Donald Trump’s wild outburst on TV whilst discussing the Israel-Iran ceasefire breaking down yesterday. Since the outburst, the fragile ceasefire appears to be holding.

The UK government has announced plans to purchase at least 12 F-35 stealth jets, enhancing its nuclear capabilities for the first time in a generation.

Wednesday’s headlines report that the UK is set to buy 12 new nuclear-carrying jets from the United States as it seeks to boost its deterrents amid an increasingly unstable world.

The prime minister is set to push ahead with his welfare reforms bill, despite the growing backlash and a mounting rebellion from Labour MPs, and some opposition. Critics suggest the bill could push thousands into poverty.

There is widespread coverage of Donald Trump’s recent outburst at Israel and Iran after they broke the US-brokered ceasefire within hours of it being agreed.

A leaked report from US intelligence has suggested that the US bombing of Iranian nuclear sites did minimal damage and only set Iran’s nuclear programme back “a few months”. Trump has rejected the report, saying the nuclear sites in Iran were “completely destroyed.”

An early U.S. Defence Intelligence Agency assessment, according to American media CNN, indicates the weekend strikes on Iran’s nuclear sites, including Fordow, Natanz, and Isfahan, failed to destroy the core nuclear infrastructure.
