The United States has paused its military campaign against Iran, marking the first night without airstrikes following nearly two weeks of consecutive nightly bombardments. This cessation of hostilities occurs as the conflict approaches its fifth month, signaling a potential shift in the operational tempo of the ongoing engagement.
