What happened

Well supportedReported by 12 independent outlets

The war between the United States and Iran, which began nearly eight months ago, has seen major U.S. military operations wind down in favor of economic pressure, including a naval blockade of Iranian ports, according to reports. Despite the conflict, Iran's nuclear program is reportedly growing, with officials discussing reviewing their nuclear doctrine. Donald Trump rejected Iran's cease-fire proposal, while JD Vance demanded a reduction in uranium enrichment.
