In a striking statement, a US senator (name not specified) said Washington's ammunition stockpiles have been significantly depleted after air strike campaigns against targets in Iran. According to the senator, this situation reflects the immense pressure on US military logistics amid escalating conflict in the Middle East.
The senator emphasized that replenishing ammunition is critically urgent to maintain deterrence and protect national interests. He also called on the US Congress to quickly approve additional funding to address the shortage.
The US Department of Defense has not yet issued an official comment on the matter. However, military experts suggest the warning reflects the reality that prolonged conflicts are substantially eroding US defense resources, especially as the country supports allies across multiple theaters.
