JUST IN: Iran Foreign minister Abbas Araghchi says: “We are deeply grateful to Pakistan for its efforts and have never refused to go to Islamabad. What we care about are the terms of a conclusive and lasting END to the illegal war that is imposed on us.”….
There was little in the way of a public explanation for sacking George, a highly decorated veteran who oversaw the army at a time when the United States is more than a month into a punishing bombing campaign against Iran that Trump says will continue several weeks more.
Pentagon spokesman Sean Parnell posted a statement on X late Thursday that George “will be retiring from his position… effective immediately.”
During a nearly four-decade military career, George deployed to Iraq and Afghanistan multiple times and also served in positions including vice chief of staff of the army and senior military assistant to then-defense secretary Lloyd Austin during Joe Biden’s term as president.
The army’s vice chief of staff General Christopher LaNeve will take over as acting chief of staff, CBS reported.
