YOUTUBE (The Hill) - $25B for Iran war? Some lawmakers doubt the accuracy of estimated cost after Hegseth hearing
The Pentagon’s acting chief financial officer told members of the House Armed Services Committee on Wednesday that the U.S. war against Iran has cost $25 billion so far. “So approximately, at this day, we’re spending about $25 billion on Operation Epic Fury. Most of that is ammunitions,” Jules Hurst III said in response to a question from ranking member Rep. Adam Smith (D-Wash.) during a hearing on the Pentagon’s $1.5 trillion defense budget request. #PeteHegseth #IranWar #DOD
