> Reuters, citing sources, reports that US stocks of ATACMS and precision-strike missiles have fallen to exceptionally low levels. The sources said virtually all of the weapons were used during the war in Iran. The dramatic depletion could force the US military to rely on riskier bomber missions. Targets that would otherwise be struck from a safe distance may therefore require aircraft operating closer to danger.
