Rubio says US can see 'finish line' on Iran war

Rubio said talks are underway as the war enters its fifth week, with 348 U.S. service members wounded and peace prospects emerging.

  • Secretary of State Marco Rubio told Fox News on Tuesday that the Iran conflict is nearing resolution, stating, "We can see the finish line" while confirming messages are being exchanged between U.S. and Iranian officials.
  • On Feb. 28, the U.S. and Israel launched the offensive against Iran, with President Donald Trump initially aiming to ensure Iran never obtained a nuclear weapon, triggering Tehran's retaliatory strikes.
  • Since the war began, 348 U.S. service members have been wounded with 315 returning to duty, according to Capt. Tim Hawkins, U.S. Central Command spokesperson, while 13 have been killed in combat.
  • Tehran has disputed the administration's characterization of ongoing peace talks, contradicting House officials' claims, as President Trump plans to address the nation on Wednesday at 9 p.m. ET.
  • Rubio suggested the U.S. must reexamine its NATO ties after the conflict, questioning whether the alliance remains effective if allies deny "basing rights" and "overflight" support during future operations.
