The long-simmering conflict between the U.S. and Iran appears to be escalating into a potentially dangerous phase.
New satellite images over the Natanz nuclear site in Iran, where a major explosion occurred on July 2, show far more extensive damage than was clear last week. Two intelligence officials said the damage caused by the strike, which was apparently engineered by Israel, could set back the Iranian nuclear program by up to two years.
Some officials say that a joint American-Israeli strategy is turning to a series of short-of-war clandestine strikes, in a wager that Iran will limit its retaliation in the short term.
