Trump ends Iran operations, reducing US invasion likelihood
President Donald Trump has informed Congress that military operations against Iran have been terminated, marking a shift from active engagement to regional deterrence. The move aligns with the expiration of a 60-day War Powers Resolution period and follows limited U.S. actions under Operation Epic Fury.
