U.S. Department of Defense assesses the cost of war with Iran at a maximum of $100 billion

Internal assessments by the United States Department of Defense indicate that the cost of the war with Iran is between $80 billion and $100 billion, three times more than the previous estimate of $30 billion. The Pentagon is seeking a supplementary budget allocation of $68 billion to sustain its operations so far in the autumn, when Congress will consider a new budget of $1.5 trillion。
