It took me really efforts to get out. But - as usual - it was worth it.
The Trump administration has burned through🔥 “years” of critical munitions since the start of the war with Iran,
said three people familiar with the matter,
fuelling concerns about the rising cost of the conflict and the US’s ability to replenish its stockpiles.
