Iran War Cost $25 Billion in First 2 Months, Pentagon Says

Acting War Department Comptroller Jules Hurst said expended U.S. weapons accounted for most of the U.S. cost of the Iran conflict.

US war in Iran has cost $25 billion so far, says Pentagon official.

Combat operations against Iran have cost the U.S. military about $25 billion in two months, a top Pentagon accounting official told House Armed Services Committee members on April 29.

The April 29 hearing marked the first time Secretary of War Pete Hegseth and Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff Gen. Dan Caine have testified publicly to Congress since U.S. and Israeli forces commenced attacks on Iran on Feb. 28. U.S. and Iranian forces exchanged fire for about 5 1/2 weeks before the parties entered into a ceasefire agreement on April 8.
