At a midterm rally in Fort Myers, Florida, President Donald Trump said the United States “may do another little Epic Fury” against Iran, adding that Iran could instead agree to a deal. The three outlets say Epic Fury is the name of the US military operation that began the war with Iran in late February. Epoch Times and Breitbart report the remarks and say Trump also claimed the US controls the Strait of Hormuz. France 24 says the war is nearing its eight-month mark as rising fuel prices weigh on the midterm elections. Special envoy Tom Barrack had said earlier that a US strike on Iran could come as early as that weekend, and Epoch Times says the military conflict has stalled in recent weeks.
