US House speaker says Iran war is ‘limited in scope,’ mission is ‘nearly completed’

US House Speaker Mike Johnson says the operation in Iran is “by design limited in scope and mission.” He also tells reporters in Florida that he thinks the mission “is being achieved.”

“It’s nearly completed,” the Republican says.

He characterizes rising US gas prices as a “temporary blip” that will come down in “a couple of weeks.”
