US NEWS LIVE: Pentagon's Gives Urgent Briefing on Iran War, Iran Capture mere Hours Away?

WASHINGTON - United States Secretary of War Pete Hegseth and Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff General Dan Caine announced a major shift in U.S. military strategy, dubbed the "Rapid Dominance" doctrine, during a tense on-camera press briefing at the Pentagon. The new policy, approved by President Donald Trump, is a direct response to escalating aggression from China in the South China Sea and Iran in the Strait of Hormuz. General Caine detailed enhanced force posture and readiness levels, emphasizing pre-emptive capabilities and overwhelming technological superiority. Secretary Hegseth delivered a stark warning to American adversaries, stating the U.S. is prepared to act decisively to protect its global interests, signaling a more hawkish foreign policy from the Trump administration's Department of Defense. #pentagon #petehegseth #militarybriefing #usmilitary #breakingnews #trump #foreignpolicy #china #iran #livenews #rapiddominance #jointchiefs control your money with economic times now. #etnow #businessnews #budget2026withetnow YouTube Channel - https://www.youtube.com/@ETNow Subscribe To ET Now For Latest Updates On Stocks Market News , Business News, Company News, IPO & More | https://bit.ly/SubscribeToETNow Subscribe Now To Our Network Channels :- ET Now Swadesh: https://www.youtube.com/etnowswadesh Times Now: http://goo.gl/U9ibPb Social Media Links :- Twitter - http://goo.gl/hA0vDt Facebook - http://goo.gl/5Lr4mC Website - https://www.etnownews.com Download our App for Breaking News: https://tinyurl.com/4y6e3u2e Follow us on Google News for latest updates ET Now: https://news.google.com/publications/CAAqBwgKMK3HxQsw0OLcAw?hl=en-IN&gl=IN&ceid=IN%3Aen Times Now Navbharat: https://bit.ly/3zDaKJo Times Now : https://bit.ly/3CyrrYg Zoom: https://bit.ly/3CEK0dv
