After eight consecutive days of U.S. airstrikes on Iran, Energy Secretary Chris Wright affirmed on Sunday that the U.S. mission will continue until President Donald Trump's stated objectives are achieved. Wright emphasized the mission's goal is to prevent Iran from acquiring nuclear weapons and to degrade its ability to threaten regional stability and global commerce. The latest strikes followed an Iranian attack in Jordan that killed two American service members and left one missing, according to U.S. Central Command. Since the war began in late February, 16 U.S. troops have been killed, and hundreds wounded, per the Department of Defense. A ceasefire reached in April and extended in June has since collapsed, with both sides declaring the agreement dead. Wright initially predicted the conflict would last weeks, not months, but the war has persisted beyond initial expectations.
