> US activists have sued Donald Trump’s administration, asking a District of Columbia court to declare the war against Iran illegal and order it to stop. NIAC President Jamal Abdi said the case relies on the Constitution’s allocation of war powers to Congress, not the president, and that plaintiffs will appeal to higher courts if necessary.
