Two accounts relaying Axios reported that senior US national security officials, chaired by Vice President Vance, met for hours on Friday to discuss next steps in the Iranian conflict, with Secretary of State Rubio, Defense Secretary Hegseth, CIA Director Ratcliffe, Joint Chiefs Chairman General Caine and envoy Witkoff attending; one account places the meeting at Camp David, describes it as unannounced and quotes an unnamed official saying things were decided. The recovered material contains no decision, no operational order and no second news organisation, and both posts derive from the same Axios reporting.

Verification: unverified

Evidence: US national security officials discussed next steps in the Iranian conflict for hours on Friday

Two X accounts relaying the same Axios reporting, which is one origin and not two confirmations. No decision, order or operational step is reported, the location and the announcement status appear in only one of the two posts, and the quoted official is unnamed.
