What’s happening?
U.S. officials are currently engaged in extensive discussions regarding the War Powers Act as it pertains to military operations in Iran, following the termination of hostilities. The debate centers on whether Congress’s approval is necessary given the recent escalation of conflict in the region.
In contrasting headlines, “Trump tells Congress hostilities in Iran ‘have terminated’ as War Powers deadline hits” (CNBC) emphasizes the procedural aspect of military authorization and the timing of Congressional involvement. Conversely, “Trump administration says its war in Iran has been ‘terminated’ before 60-day deadline” (Yahoo) presents the narrative of conflict resolution, highlighting the cessation of military actions. This difference reflects varying focuses on either the legal frameworks governing military action or the implications of halting military engagement.

Thursday’s front pages continue to be dominated by the ongoing crisis in the Middle East. Electronic pagers across Lebanon exploded simultaneously on Sept. 17, 2024, killing 12 and wounding more than 2,700. The following day, another wave of explosions in the country came from detonating walkie-talkies. The attacks appeared to target members of the militant group Hezbollah.
Israel has yet to comment on the attack but on Wednesday Israeli Defense Minister Yoav Gallant declared that the conflict had entered “a new phase.”
The ‘new phase’ comment is picked up by several of the broadsheets, whilst a handful of the tabloids report the Middle East is ‘on the brink’. Many of the papers look ahead at whether the latest developments will lead to a widening of the war – Lebanon is expected to retaliate.
