U.S. military pauses nightly Iran strikes
Iran reported no strikes overnight, as President Trump ordered the U.S. military to not conduct attacks on Friday, according to Axios. This broke a 13-night streak of nightly strikes. Despite a quieter past 24 hours, the U.S. has gradually expanded the scope of its attacks against Iran recently.
President Trump says he is weighing a "massive attack" on Iran.
This all comes as CENTCOM released a statement Saturday saying the U.S. naval blockade remains in "full effect."

AI GeneratedThe US continues its naval blockade of Iran, redirecting and disabling several commercial vessels. While a recent break in nightly strikes occurred due to strategic deliberations and concerns over missile interceptors, the US is surging forces to the region. Intelligence suggests current bombing levels are ineffective, leading the administration to weigh more massive operations against nuclear sites or oil exports.
