Karoline Leavitt, the White House Press Secretary, has declared “Operation Epic Fury” a major victory for the United States, crediting Donald Trump and the US military for exceeding expectations and achieving key strategic objectives in just 38 days.
In a statement shared on social media, Leavitt said the operation, initially projected to last 4–6 weeks, concluded ahead of schedule due to the “unbelievable capabilities” of American forces.
She further revealed that more details would be shared in an official briefing by Pete Hegseth and Chairman Caine, highlighting the operational success and its broader geopolitical impact.
According to the White House, the military success has significantly strengthened the US position in global negotiations. Leavitt emphasized that the outcome has created “maximum leverage” for diplomatic engagement, opening pathways toward a long-term peace solution.
One of the most notable developments cited was the reopening of the Strait of Hormuz, a critical global oil transit route, signaling a major shift in regional stability.
Leavitt stated that President Trump’s leadership has demonstrated a unique ability to combine military strength with diplomacy, adding that the administration remains focused on securing American interests while working toward long-term peace in a volatile region.
