The cost of the US military campaign against Iran has already cost 37.5 billion dollars.
The figure was revealed by the US Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth as he appeared before the Senate to make the case for the war and ask for an additional 67 billion dollars worth of funding.
The move drew criticism from both Democrats and Republicans.
