US Secretary of State Marco Rubio stated that the Trump administration launched a preemptive strike on Iran to prevent potential attacks on American forces following Israel’s confirmed plans to strike Iran. He said Washington acted to destroy Tehran’s capabilities before it could retaliate, as Israel remained firm on its decision to attack in self-defense.

Republican leaders backed the operation as defensive, while Democrats sought to halt the war through a War Powers Resolution, though passage appears unlikely in a Republican-controlled Congress.
