The United States and Israel’s military operations against Iran will conclude once objectives are met, according to White House Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt.
“The operation will end when the commander-in-chief determines that the military objectives have been achieved, fully realized, and that Iran is in a position of complete and unconditional surrender. Regardless of whether they say so or not,” she stated during a press conference, as reported by Al Arabiya on Wednesday, March 11, 2026.
Leavitt too indicated that the operations are progressing well and ahead of schedule.

“We know that U.S. Military and our brave fighters are quickly and efficiently executing these objectives faster than scheduled,” she told reporters.
She further emphasized that the operation’s goals include “destroying Iran’s missiles and capabilities, destroying their navy, permanently preventing them from having nuclear weapons forever, and of course, weakening their evil terrorist proxies in the region.”
Since February 28, Israel and the U.S. Have been conducting strikes against targets in Iran and targeting their naval forces in the Persian Gulf and surrounding areas. The escalating conflict has raised concerns about a wider regional war.
Iran has responded with retaliatory attacks against Israel and U.S. Military bases in the region, striking countries in the Middle East and the Caucasus, and blocking the Strait of Hormuz.
