Trump launches Operation Epic Fury against Iran

President Donald Trump announces and launches Operation Epic Fury, a sustained military campaign against Iran following Iranian missile attacks on Israeli territory. The campaign involves U.S. aircraft, including B-52 bombers from Diego Garcia, striking Iranian military targets and bases. Trump describes the operation as major combat operations. The campaign escalates tensions dramatically, with multiple rounds of strikes targeting Iran Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC) positions. By March 2026, the operation has resulted in several American military deaths and injured servicemembers. Critics argue the operation lacks clear objectives and congressional authorization. Democratic senators invoke the War Powers Resolution seeking to halt operations.
