The alleged move is likely to escalate tensions with Iran. A U.S. official confirmed to the Times of Israel and the New York Times that the fighters were being sent…

In the notice, VA officials said that while the rule was meant to clarify existing policy, “stakeholders have expressed uncertainty” about its impact on claims and leaving the rule in place during the codification process “could undermine confidence in the benefits system.” “VA always takes veterans’ concerns seriously and recognizes that many commenters construed the interim final rule as something that could result in adverse consequences,” the notice read. The rule, published Feb. 17, generated significant backlash from veterans, advocacy groups…
