The US is reportedly preparing a massive $80 billion bill to replenish military supplies depleted during the 2019-2020 Iran war, more than double the initial estimate of $35 billion presented by the Trump administration to Congress. The request comes as lawmakers grapple with another substantial funding proposal from the Pentagon. The war's total cost is expected to surpass $200 billion when including initial estimates and potential future expenditures.
