TASS (Russian state media) · back to the audit

US Vice President JD Vance has expressed concern at a meeting at the White House about a possible escalation of the military conflict with Iran, CNN quoted sources as saying. It reported that on Friday, at a meeting with the participation of US President Donald Trump, Vance and General Dan Caine voiced their concern about a potential escalation. Caine said that the expansion would further deplete US ammunition stocks. A Pentagon source confirmed to the broadcaster that the operation has been suspended. The reason for the pause is unclear. According to CNN, the Persian Gulf countries appealed to the US administration to demonstrate restraint.
