Trump Administration Interprets Iran Ceasefire as End of Hostilities

The Trump administration has interpreted a ceasefire agreement with Iran as marking the end of active hostilities between the two countries. Under congressional requirements, the administration had until May 1st to either conclude the conflict or present justification to Congress for extending military operations. The administration's interpretation of the ceasefire as effectively ending the confrontation appears to satisfy the congressional deadline without requiring further authorization for continued military engagement.
