Trump hints at ‘winding down’ Iran war as US deploys more troops to region

AI Summary
Amidst an escalating war with Iran, President Trump has sent mixed signals regarding the conflict. While the US deploys 2,500 additional marines and requests more funding from Congress, Trump suggested he is considering "winding down" military operations. This announcement followed a drop in US stock markets due to rising oil prices, prompting the administration to lift sanctions on Iranian oil already loaded on ships. The White House Press Secretary indicated the mission, dubbed "Operation Epic Fury," could conclude in 4-6 weeks, with the goal of crippling the Iranian regime. However, the three-week-old war continues, with US-Israeli forces attacking Tehran as Iran celebrates Nowruz.
