America And Israel started attacks on Iran on February 28, 2026. In response to this attack, Iran started attacking American targets located in Israel and Gulf countries. Even today, for the 13th day, the situation in West Asia remains bad and the whole world is suffering its consequences. US President Donald Trump is spending billions of rupees to bring Iran to its knees. Pentagon officials have told lawmakers that the US has spent an estimated $11.3 billion, or more than Rs 1.04 lakh crore, since launching the attack on Iran. But, this expense is only for the first 6 days. Not only this, it does not include many expenses related to military hardware and gathering of people.
The total expenditure for 6 days can be much more than this.
According to the report of The New York Times, this figure is still incomplete and as the cost of mobilization, replenishment of weapons and long operations becomes clear, America’s expenses are likely to increase rapidly. On Capitol Hill, senators were given a closed-door briefing on the estimated expenses. The report states that Pentagon officials said that more than $11.3 billion was spent in the first six days of the war against Iran. This figure reflects the expenditure incurred during the initial phase of combat operations after the campaign began with US air strikes on 28 February.
More than 2000 people have died
In this conflict that started on February 28, not only a large number of people are being killed but a huge amount of money is also being spent. About 2000 people have been killed in this war so far. Most of those killed are Iranians. Apart from Iran, many people have also lost their lives in Lebanon as this fighting has reached Lebanon and a large number of people have been killed there in Israeli attacks. Following the US and Israeli attacks, Iran closed the Strait of Hormuz under its control, which is a very important route for global oil and gas transportation.
