Secretary of State Rubio Announces Conclusion of 'Operation Epic Fury' Offensive Against Iran
U.S. Secretary of State Marco Rubio announced during a White House briefing that offensive military operations under 'Operation Epic Fury' have successfully concluded. Following a month-long ceasefire, the U.S. will transition to a defensive posture focused on securing international waterways. Despite the cessation of offensive strikes, the administration maintains a naval blockade on Iranian ports and has threatened significant reprisals if Iran resumes attacks on commercial shipping or U.S. naval assets.
