Despite bipartisan opposition to the war, efforts to impeach Hegseth were squashed as Iran denies US, Tehran talks The US House, which Republicans control until January, has voted 211 to 204 to send a resolution to impeach US Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth to committee, effectively killing the bid. The resolution accused him over the war on Iran, among other allegations.

Iranian Parliament Speaker Mohammad Bagher Ghalibaf has said that Israelis are “working overtime to drag the US into an endless war with Iran”, as Iranian security chief Mohsen Rezaei dismissed reports that talks are ongoing between Tehran and Washington.
