Pete Hegseth is set to address a press conference on Operation Epic Fury today, as Washington outlines its next steps following a two-week ceasefire between the United States and Iran.
The pause in hostilities, agreed at the last minute ahead of a deadline set by President Donald Trump, has shifted attention from active conflict to strategy from US officials.
Hegseth will speak at 8:00 am ET (6:30 pm IST), alongside Chairman Caine.
The press conference will be streamed live on the official handles of the US Department of War.
It is also expected to be broadcast across major television news networks.
Operation Epic Fury refers to the US military campaign involving sustained strikes on Iranian infrastructure in recent weeks.
The operation has been central to escalating tensions between Washington and Tehran.
The recently announced ceasefire has temporarily paused these operations, though officials have indicated it remains conditional.
