Pentagon Says Iran War Has Cost About $25 Billion, With More Detail Pending

A top Pentagon official testified that the U.S. war with Iran has cost roughly $25 billion so far, largely for munitions and ongoing operations, with a full cost breakdown and any supplemental funding to be provided to Congress later. The figure echoes an earlier estimate of $11.3 billion in the first six days and comes as gas prices rise and Congress debates the War Powers timeline and potential authorization for continued actions.
