President Trump announced a ceasefire ending the 12-day conflict between Israel and Iran, which escalated following Israel's attack on Iranian nuclear sites. As the ceasefire was due to begin, Israel launched further strikes on Iran. Meanwhile, Trump's decision to conduct airstrikes without Congress's consultation faced backlash. Concurrently, a U.S. Supreme Court ruling reversed a decision on deportation process notifications, worrying immigrant rights advocates who fear thousands could face perilous returns to their home nations.
Despite the ceasefire agreement, Israel intensified its strikes on Iran just before the ceasefire was set to take effect. Conflict is often dicey and uncertain at the start of any ceasefire.
Lawmakers have been highly critical of Trump's decision to launch airstrikes on Iran's nuclear facilities without first consulting Congress, saying the move bypasses their constitutional authority to declare war.
A U.S. Supreme Court ruling blocked a lower court order that required 15 days' notice to people the Trump administration is trying to deport to countries other than where they are from.
Immigrant rights advocates have called the ruling disastrous, saying that thousands of migrants could be sent to countries where they could face persecution.
