Will U.S. forces strike targets on Iranian soil between July 27 and August 2, 2026?

Why: The supplied, independent news reports consistently describe a pause/cancellation of U.S. strikes on Iran during the contested week and do not report U.S. strikes on Iranian soil in that interval. PBS (Jul 27) reported that “neither the U.S. nor Iran reported carrying out any attacks for three days,” NPR (Jul 27) says the U.S. military “has paused its airstrikes on Iran,” and OPB (Jul 28) describes Iranian missiles ending a brief pause but does not report U.S. strikes inside Iran in response. CNN’s live updates on Aug 2 note that no strikes were reported overnight into Sunday and that planned U.S. strikes were called off. When U.S. strikes are reported in the supplied material during this window (for example, strikes on July 29), they were against Iran-aligned militias in Iraq or were naval/blockade actions, not strikes on targets located within internationally recognized Iranian territory. No source in the provided evidence reports U.S. forces striking targets on Iranian soil between 2026-07-27 and 2026-08-02, so the correct settlement based on the evidence is NO.
