House Blocks Bid to Halt Iran War

In a heated floor debate, House Republicans blocked a war powers resolution aimed at halting the U.S. military campaign against Iran without explicit congressional approval.

The measure failed by a single vote, as GOP leadership successfully limited defections despite growing public anxiety over the war's duration.

Democrats argued that the conflict, now approaching its seventh week, lacks constitutional authorization and is fueling a global energy crisis.

President Trump has maintained that the offensive is nearly over and has achieved its primary objectives.
