Trump says US will not resume military strikes on Iran before the Nov. 3 midterm elections

Trump has announced that the US will not resume military strikes on Iran prior to the Nov. 3 midterm elections. This statement follows the military dispatching additional resources to the region. While campaigning for Republicans this week, the president expressed confidence that the endgame to the war could potentially occur in the days immediately preceding or following the election. The administration maintains this strategic pause in offensive operations until the electoral process is completed.
