On February 28, 2026, the US and Israel launched "Operation Epic Fury" — massive joint strikes to destroy Iran's nuclear capabilities and decapitate its leadership. Supreme Leader Khamenei killed Day 1. A 14-point MOU was signed June 19 in Switzerland — but collapsed early July as both sides resumed strikes over Hormuz. By Day 150: MUTUAL PAUSE — US and Iran halt strikes for 2+ consecutive days (Jul 25-27). Pentagon RESTORES 4 deaths to count AND discloses 140+ additional wounded — US toll now 20+ KIA, ~700+ wounded. CSIS: $40B direct military ($34-42B range). Oil crashes from $100+ to $89/bbl on pause hopes. Saudi strikes Houthis in Yemen. Ukraine strikes Iranian vessels in Caspian Sea — war reaches new front. Hormuz: no attacks in 72 hours, compromise being negotiated. ~8,080 total killed. 150 days, no congressional authorization, no deal signed.

$5.1 billion US equipment losses, estimated.
