Congressional Democrats are pushing for a vote to curb President Trump's war powers following recent US strikes on Iran.
Several news outlets report that lawmakers are demanding an immediate vote on legislation to restrain the ongoing military campaign, with some condemning the strikes as "acts of war unauthorized by Congress." The situation has also exposed divisions within the Republican party, with some allies of Trump criticizing the administration's actions. The strikes are seen as a significant foreign policy gamble for Trump, potentially impacting upcoming midterms and testing his coalition.
Reports also indicate that Saudi Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman had urged the US to carry out the strike.
