According to a report by the US “Capitol Hill” newspaper on the 15th, the US Department of Defense has reported to Congress that the war against Iran has already spent more than 42 billion US dollars. This figure is 4.5 billion US dollars more than the last time the Pentagon published data. The report said that US Department of Defense officials provided an updated estimate of the cost of the war against Iran to the relevant congressional committee on August 13. This is the first time since late July that the US government has updated this data. US Secretary of Defense Hegseth said at the Senate Appropriations Committee hearing on July 21 that the US has spent about 37.5 billion US dollars on military operations against Iran. However, according to several US media analyses, the actual US military spending on Iran may be as high as 100 billion US dollars.
