The US House of Representatives has voted 220-204 to approve a resolution demanding that President Donald Trump end military operations against Iran, according to a C-SPAN broadcast and TASS.
The resolution is not legally binding and serves as a recommendation.
Lawmakers usually express their position in such documents, while the government has the right to ignore them.
Under the US Constitution, Congress holds the power to formally declare war.
However, in recent decades, US presidents have widely interpreted lawmakers’ authorization to use military power overseas, particularly launching new military operations.
