July 18th, 2025: Russia Threatens 'Preemptive Strikes' Against NATO & US Intel Suggests Iran Strikes Only Destroyed One Nuclear Site
In this episode of The President's Daily Brief:
First—we’ll have the latest developments from the war in Ukraine, as Russian leaders threaten the U.S. and NATO allies with "preemptive strikes" over President Donald Trump’s pledge to boost weapons shipments to Ukraine.
Later in the show—a new U.S. intelligence assessment finds that last month’s strikes on Iran’s nuclear sites only fully destroyed one of Iran’s three main facilities. The assessment warns that the mullahs could likely restart enrichment activity at the other two sites within just a few months.
