The US House of Representatives voted 215-208 to pass a resolution seeking to limit further military action by the administration of Donald Trump against Iran. Four Republicans joined Democrats in backing the measure, marking the fourth House attempt to curb presidential war powers amid the conflict that began in February. The resolution now moves to the Senate, where its future remains uncertain. Supporters argued that Congress alone has the authority to declare war, while critics of the administration said the conflict has increased fuel prices and complicated diplomacy. Trump maintained that negotiations with Iran were progressing and a deal could be reached soon.
