Secret CIA Assessment of 3 Possible Iranian Responses to US Attacks In a classified report, the US Central Intelligence Agency concluded that Iran could respond in three ways in the event of new US attacks. First, it may impose additional restrictions on the movement of ships through the Strait of Hormuz, and as a result impose more economic costs on America. Second, it may organize attacks against American targets in different parts of the world. Third, it can conduct cyber operations against targets and infrastructure located on American soil. The information of this secret assessment was provided to the Washington Post by an anonymous US official.
