The Pentagon estimated that US forces used approximately $5.6 billion worth of munitions during the first two days of military strikes against Iran. The figure was reported to Congress and illustrates the rapid pace of usage of advanced weaponry.
According to US officials, the administration led by US President Donald Trump is expected to submit a supplementary defense budget request this week, amounting to tens of billions of dollars, to continue funding the military operation. The request is expected to face opposition from some members of Congress, primarily among Democrats.
