Iran conflict causes US munitions shortages
The US Department of Defense inspector general confirmed that the ongoing war with Iran has caused shortages in munitions and delays in resupply, contradicting claims from President Trump who asserts the US has virtually unlimited ammunition. The report reveals the US spent over $22 billion on munitions during a five-month period, leading to strategic inventory shortfalls and bottlenecks in production. Despite official denials, estimates indicate significant depletion of missile interceptors and other weapons, with the US experiencing equipment losses totaling billions of dollars during the conflict.
