Six Democratic senators have intensified their campaign for public hearings concerning the Iran conflict. The lawmakers are demanding testimonies under oath from Trump administration officials and are prepared to interrupt Senate operations if Republican resistance persists.

Leading Democrats from the Foreign Relations and Armed Services committees, led by Senator Cory Booker, have requested cooperation from Republican chairmen. Their objective is to quickly resolve the Iran conflict while safeguarding American forces.
