INTELLIGENCE SUMMARY
U.S. intelligence believes the latest American strikes are unlikely to make Iran soften its negotiating position. Instead, analysts see the two countries settling into a prolonged stalemate, with ongoing military attacks but little chance of either side gaining a decisive advantage. The assessment also says Iran's leadership remains focused on regime survival and is willing to absorb significant military and economic costs rather than make major concessions. Source: WaPo
