US President Donald Trump informed lawmakers on Friday that military operations against Iran have "terminated" due to the arrival of a 60-day legal deadline for actions launched without congressional approval. This conclusion follows a CNN investigation that found Iranian forces and their allies damaged at least 16 US military sites across eight countries, rendering some unusable since the conflict began on February 28. Amid these developments, the IRNA news agency reported that 14 members of Iran's Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC) were killed and two others wounded in Zanjan province by an explosion. The fatal blast occurred while the members were attempting to defuse unexploded ordnance left behind by US and Israeli airstrikes during the war.
