In a historic rebuke to the White House, the House of Representatives has voted to pass a war powers resolution that would effectively bring an end to US military action against Iran. The move, which saw a rare bipartisan coalition of Democrats and a handful of Republicans come together, is a significant shift in the country's foreign policy landscape. The resolution, which now heads to the Senate for consideration, would limit the president's ability to engage in military conflict without Congressional approval, a move that could have far-reaching implications for the country's relationships with its allies and adversaries around the world. As the US grapples with the aftermath of the three-month-long conflict, this development marks a significant turning point in the nation's politics and foreign policy.
