Donald Trump claimed that war in the Middle East is now "pretty much" over, according to recent statements by the president-elect.

Trump attributed this assessment to what he described as a US-Israeli operation that was launched ten days prior to his comments. He characterized the operation as being "very far" ahead of its planned timeline.

The specific details of the operation Trump referenced were not immediately clear from his statements. No independent verification of the claims about the conflict's status was immediately available.

Trump's comments come as various conflicts continue across the Middle East region, including ongoing tensions involving Israel and neighboring areas. The assessment of whether regional conflicts are concluding would typically require confirmation from multiple official sources and military analysts.
