White House Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt repeated the administration's insistence that the US war against Iran should be over within another two weeks.  

Karoline Leavitt, White House Press Secretary…said  "With respect to the timeline, again, the President, Commander-in-Chief, the Pentagon has always stated four to six weeks estimated timeline for Operation Epic Fury. We're on day 30 today. So, again, you do the math on how much longer we — the Pentagon needs to fully achieve the objectives of Operation Epic Fury, which I will reiterate — destroy the Iranian Navy, destroy their ballistic missiles, dismantle their missile and drone production infrastructure, significantly weaken their proxies throughout the course of this operation, and then, of course, preventing Iran from ever obtaining a nuclear weapon." 

 Leavitt also said the US armed forces would always act within the law. However, she warned Iran that the US military "has capabilities beyond their wildest imagination and the president is not afraid to use them."
