For nearly 140 days, the conflict with Iran has shifted from direct military action to negotiations and limited exchanges, leaving key objectives unresolved.
Missile attacks on Gulf states continue, the Strait of Hormuz remains contested, and questions remain about Iran's enriched uranium and nuclear capabilities.
Iran has sought to prolong the conflict until after the midterm elections, while President Trump is under pressure to conclude military operations without preventing Iran from rebuilding its military strength.
The latest strikes have become more aggressive, remaining military targets are identified, responsibility for securing the Strait of Hormuz is shifted to regional allies, and Iran's decision to avoid attacking Israel despite continuing attacks across the Gulf highlights Israel's deterrence and military advantage.
