US Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent denied on Thursday that there is a maximum cost for a war with Iran that would lead him to confront President Donald Trump. Reuters reported on Wednesday that estimates from Trump administration officials during a congressional briefing this week concluded that the first six days of the war with Iran cost the United States at least $11.3 billion. In response to a Sky News question about whether there was a cost limit that might lead him to confront Trump, Bessent said, 'Certainly not.' Meanwhile, the Financial Times, citing sources, reported that the Trump administration had depleted a stockpile of vital munitions sufficient for years since the start of the war with Iran.
