Many of those assets are expensive and difficult to replace.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cIt&#8217;s notable they really identified those facilities as the most cost-effective targets to hit,\u201d the source said. \u201cOur radar systems (are) our most expensive and our most limited resources in the region.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">On Wednesday, Pentagon comptroller Jules \u201cJay\u201d Hurst III told prosecutors that the war in Iran has cost the US about $25 billion so far. However, a source later told <em>CNN<\/em> that the actual figure is likely closer to $40-50 billion.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The war is currently on a halt and efforts to end it permanently continue. US President Donald Trump on Friday said &#8220;Iran isn&#8217;t coming through with the kind of deal that we have to have.&#8221; <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Meanwhile, the US warned several European states that they could face arms delivery delays amid their depleted stockpiles due to the Iran war, <em>Financial Times<\/em> reported Friday.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The Pentagon reportedly told their European allies including the UK, Poland, Lithuania and Estonia to expect significant delays for several missile systems, the <em>FT<\/em> learned from nine familiar sources.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The delays stem in part from mounting concerns about US stockpiles following extensive weapons use in Iran in recent months.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Two sources said there were also talks about postponing shipments to Asia.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The delays also dealt with a blow to Ukraine amid concerns over continued US support four years into the war with Russia. &#8211; AA<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Iran and its allies struck no fewer than 16 US military sites in eight countries across the Middle East in the latest military conflict, leaving some of them \u201cvirtually unusable,\u201d CNN reported on Friday citing sources.
