A leaked US Air Force email reveals that the Pentagon secretly renamed the Iran operation codenamed "Epic Fury" to circumvent Congress's 60-day war authorization deadline. The email dated August 7 shows the operation was completely renamed, and this change is alleged to be an attempt to exploit a legal loophole.

Under the War Powers Resolution, the US President can sustain a military intervention for a maximum of 60 days without Congressional approval. It is claimed that by renaming the operation, the Pentagon sought a way to reset this clock or avoid legal scrutiny. This development signals that US-Iran tensions have taken on a military dimension and that attempts are being made to bypass legal processes.

Experts emphasize that such name changes carry the risk of weakening congressional oversight and reducing the transparency of military operations. The leaked document raises new questions about how far the US administration has gone in its Iran policy and how it interprets legal frameworks.
