Projections reported by major news organizations indicate Democrats won the House and captured enough Republican-held Senate seats to take control of Congress. The outcome comes amid public frustration over the Iran conflict and domestic economic pressures, while Trump has said he will accept the election results. The shift is expected to intensify scrutiny of the administration’s foreign policy, including its stated plan to end US military aid to Israel and its handling of tensions with Iran and Yemen.
