Several media outlets earlier claimed that dwindling supplies are stalling a wider assault on Iran
US President Donald Trump has denied that the American military is struggling with dwindling munitions as it continues its war with Iran. The remarks come as a rare pause in the fighting entered a third day, following reports that low interceptor stocks were forcing the White House’s hand in the conflict.
On Sunday, the New York Times and the Wall Street Journal reported that Trump had held off on a major new attack on Iran over concerns that the Pentagon is running low on air defense missiles.
In a statement to the WSJ, Trump pushed back on the claim, saying, “We have far more munitions than anyone in the world, and far more than we need.” He did not provide further details.
