The Congressional Budget Office says the Iran war has cost the United States more than $38 billion so far. Depending on how intense the fighting is, spending could rise by as much as $3 billion per month.
The US House has voted for a third time to end American involvement in the war with Iran.
The US House voted 220-204 to approve a war powers resolution for the third time, seeking to halt President Donald Trump’s ability to continue military action against Iran without congressional approval. Seven Republicans supported it, but none of the resolutions has reached the president, who would almost certainly veto it.
Reuters, citing analytics firm Kpler, reported that just two ships entered and two exited the Strait of Hormuz on Tuesday, the lowest level recorded. Analysts said none were oil supertankers or liquefied natural gas carriers. Before the conflict, roughly 125 large commercial vessels crossed the strait daily.
As the conflict continues, the U.S. House has voted for a third time to end the war in Iran. It approved a war powers resolution late Tuesday aimed at stopping President Donald Trump from continuing military action without congressional approval.
The US House voted 220-204 for a resolution urging President Donald Trump to end military operations against Iran. The nonbinding measure is only a recommendation. The report says the US and Israel began the war on February 28, while Washington resumed massive strikes on July 8, accusing Tehran of violating agreements concerning the Strait of Hormuz.
The House approved a measure requiring President Donald Trump to end his war with Iran. The vote delivered a potent political rebuke of the administration’s handling of the conflict just weeks before the midterm elections.
Drone experts warn that Iran is deliberately targeting U.S. naval drones in the Strait of Hormuz to study American surveillance capabilities and learn how to evade U.S. defenses. The warning followed an attempted IRGC seizure of a U.S. unmanned surface vessel, after which the U.S. military destroyed two Iranian small boats. Experts say even brief access to captured hardware could reveal sensors, tactics and battlefield vulnerabilities.
A Congressional Budget Office report says the six-month US war on Iran has cost $38bn and could add $3bn monthly. It projects a 0.5-percentage-point inflation increase in early 2027 and says replenishing depleted US munitions stockpiles could take up to five years.
The Congressional Budget Office says the Iran war has cost the US at least $38bn and heavily depleted its Patriot, Thaad and Navy interceptor stockpiles, which could take at least five years to rebuild. The report estimates costs would rise by $3bn each additional month and inflation would remain higher.
US Vice President J.D. Vance said the conflict with Iran would enter a completely different phase within two months. He said Washington had completed the first stage, which he described as destroying Iran’s nuclear program and conventional military. Donald Trump has said the conflict could end after the November midterms, while allowing for an earlier settlement.
The Congressional Budget Office says the conflict with Iran has already cost US citizens $38 billion in its first five months, with monthly costs of $2-3 billion. It also confirmed that the war has depleted US weapons stocks, including critical interceptors used by air-defense systems.
A nonpartisan Congressional Budget Office assessment says the US war with Iran had cost at least $38 billion by the end of July and is expected to drive inflation higher still.
The Congressional Budget Office estimates that the war with Iran has caused more than one-third of this year’s increase in inflation and will push prices higher again in the first quarter of next year, according to a report released Tuesday.
The Congressional Budget Office says the war in Iran has cost the Pentagon $38 billion and depleted its missile stockpiles.
The six-month U.S. war against Iran has cost $38 billion so far, with spending projected to increase by $3 billion each month, according to the Congressional Budget Office. The Trump administration is seeking to end the conflict and reopen the vital Strait of Hormuz.
Donald Trump campaigned for the U.S. presidency in 2024 on a promise to do almost anything for the oil industry, summed up by his slogan, “Drill, baby, drill.” Yet many of his forceful actions since returning to office have worked in the opposite direction.
