Overview

  • Fragile ceasefire holds after U.S. Operation Midnight Hammer and Israeli airstrikes on Fordow, Natanz and Isfahan.
  • President Trump said he would “without question” authorize further bombing if Iran resumes weapons-grade uranium enrichment.
  • He dropped plans for sanctions relief following Supreme Leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei’s denunciation of U.S. actions.
  • Iran’s parliament voted to suspend cooperation with the International Atomic Energy Agency and may block returning inspections.
  • Congressional Democrats are probing whether the strikes violated the War Powers Resolution even as the administration eyes limited talks with Tehran.
