President Donald Trump's assertions that the war in Iran is nearing its end and objectives are almost complete, made nearly five weeks after the opening strike, are contradicted by ongoing missile fire, active proxy forces, and an intact nuclear program, according to a review by ynet and The New York Times.
The White House claims elimination of Iran's leadership and regime change. However, while Iran's navy sustained severe damage, its nuclear program remains deeply buried in fortified sites.
The Middle East is far from stable, and Iran's regional proxy network continues to operate. Trump initially outlined war objectives on February 28, hours after a joint Israel-US attack, aiming to protect Americans by removing immediate threats.
Despite Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu's statement about removing an existential missile threat, Iran continues to launch missiles at Israel eight months later, albeit at significantly reduced levels.
