Trump allegedly informed Congress that the Iranian war had resumed

On 14 July, according to the United States New York Times, on 13 July, United States President Trump officially informed Congress that fighting had resumed in Iran. It was reported that on the same day the newspaper obtained a letter from Trump 10 to the leader of Congress, in which he wrote that United States forces had carried out “defensive strikes” against targets in Iran on 7 July. According to the report, this letter has once again fueled a dispute between Congress and the White House, which, although the Houses of Congress had previously voted for the President to end the war or seek approval to proceed, maintained that Trump, as Commander-in-Chief, acted within the limits of constitutional authority。
