Iran war hits 6 months as Trump drops timeline for peace talks
What's new: More than 100 children were killed in Minab on the war's first day, and parts of Iran remain in ruins half a year later.
Six months after U.S. and Israeli strikes on Iran began, the conflict shows no sign of ending. President Donald Trump had predicted the war would last four to five weeks, but now says it will continue as long as necessary and has set no timetable for restarting talks with Tehran. PBS reported that damage from the opening attacks is still visible across Iran. In the southern city of Minab, families are mourning more than 100 children killed when their school was bombed on the first day of the war. The six-month mark underscores how far the conflict has drifted from its initial timeline and how heavy the civilian toll remains inside Iran.
