From NPR.
Iran launched the strike after Israel struck the Iranian side of the field. President Trump said Israel had “violently lashed out” at the facility out of anger, but he said there would be no more attacks made by Israel on what he called an “extremely important and valuable” gas field. But Trump also said that if Iran continues to attack Qatar, the U.S. will not hesitate to “blow up the entirety of the South Pars Gas Field,” threatening the world’s natural gas supply.
Meanwhile, the Republican-led Senate has again blocked Democrats’ measure to enforce constitutional limits on Trump’s war powers. The Constitution grants Congress the exclusive power to declare war.
Many Democrats argue the conflict has been too costly, while Republican leaders assert Trump has authority to continue the conflict.
