Pentagon pegs Iran war price tag at $25 billion

At a House Armed Services Committee hearing, Acting Pentagon Comptroller Jules Hurst said the Iran war has cost about $25 billion so far—mainly for munitions—making it the administration’s first official price tag for the two‑month conflict; early costs were around $11 billion in the first week, with discussions of a possible supplemental request up to $200 billion, though no final figure has been settled.
