Trump tasks control of ammunition leaks
President Donald Trump has ordered investigations to identify the sources of leaks regarding the Pentagon's munitions stockpile, following reports indicating a decline in certain types of missiles and ammunition used in the war with Iran. The reports warn that revealing details about the inventories could encourage Iran to adopt a more aggressive stance and weaken the American position, prompting the military to accelerate the production of vital munitions and seek additional funding from Congress. However, the U.S. administration affirms that the armed forces possess sufficient capabilities to carry out their missions, and that the overall stockpiles are not critically depleted, with defense companies expanding production of alternative missile options to compensate for consumption. Sources indicated that the military has used most of its Tomahawk and ATACMS missile stocks, while Washington emphasizes that it has enough reserves to meet its needs.
