Pentagon Concludes Operation Epic Fury in Iran, Declares Objectives Achieved
The Pentagon has announced the conclusion of Operation Epic Fury, a military campaign in Iran aimed at degrading the country's missile-launching capabilities and damaging its defense industrial base. Secretary of State Marco Rubio stated that the operation's objectives were met, including the destruction of Iran's ability to shield its nuclear program. Despite ongoing missile attacks from Iran, the U.S. has paused 'Project Freedom,' a temporary defensive mission to protect commercial shipping in the Gulf. President Trump has declared a pause in the operation to assess progress towards a potential agreement with Iran, following requests from Pakistan and other countries.
