Statement from Congressman Sessions on Operation Epic Fury in Iran

“For decades, Americans and nations across the Middle East have been threatened, attacked, and killed by terrorists who were often used as proxies for the Iranian terrorist regime.

Operation Epic Fury is a decisive and commendable demonstration of American strength. President Trump is acting with resolve to defend American interests and advance peace through deterrence, sending a clear message that threats to our nation, our national security, and our allies will not go unanswered.

I appreciate the leadership of President Donald J. Trump and our allies, including Israel and Saudi Arabia, in making clear that Ayatollah Khamenei must be removed from power.

God bless the United States, our military, and our allies in the Middle East.”
