The US Senate has passed a resolution calling on US President Donald Trump to end the military operation against Iran. This was reported by NBC News on June 23.

"On Tuesday, the Senate approved a resolution on wartime powers, previously passed by the House of Representatives, which condemns President Donald Trump and calls for an end to the US war against Iran," the publication says.

It is specified that 50 senators voted for the adoption of the document. Against — 48.

The resolution directs Trump to withdraw the US armed forces from combat operations against Iran unless the use of force is explicitly authorized by an official declaration of war or congressional authorization.
