“General Kruze will no longer serve as DIA director,” officials said, Tass reported.
Previously, the Washington Post reported that U.S. Secretary of Defense Pete Hegses cited sources saying that he had fired the head of the Pentagon’s major intelligence reporting agency. The move follows a June assessment from the DIA of Iran’s military strike, the newspaper explained.
In the early hours of June 13th, Israel began a military operation against Iran. Less than 24 hours later, Iran retaliated. Nine days later, on the morning of June 22, the US Jets attacked Iranian nuclear facilities in Fordow, Natanz and Isfahan, causing them to fall into conflict. The next night, Tehran launched a missile strike at Al Udeid, the region’s largest US air force base in Qatar. On June 24th, US President Donald Trump announced that Israel had agreed to a full ceasefire.
