3 Republicans break with Trump in US Senate vote to block war in Iran

A U.S. Senate War Powers Resolution to block President Donald Trump’s military conflict in Iran failed with a 49-50 vote, supported by three Republicans—Lisa Murkowski, Rand Paul, and Susan Collins—while Democratic Senator John Fetterman opposed it. Trump authorized retaliatory strikes in Iraq alongside Saudi forces after Iranian drone attacks, causing oil prices to rise and gasoline costs to reach $4.09 per gallon. The conflict has resulted in 18 U.S. service member deaths and 653 injuries.
