US Secretary of State Marco Rubio said America’s ‘Operation Epic Fury’ against Iran has concluded after achieving its objectives. He said, “Iran’s ability to build a shield to protect its nuclear programme was wiped out…that was the purpose of this operation.” Notably, ‘Operation Epic Fury’ was the name given to the initial US-Israeli offensive launched on February 28.
