The New York Times reported on the 25th (local time) that the reason the "large-scale airstrikes on Iran" planned by U.S. President Donald Trump were halted was a shortage of missile stockpiles. According to the New York Times, President Trump received a warning during a closed-door meeting with U.S. military aides the previous day that the U.S. military's air defense missile inventory in the Middle East was insufficient, potentially leaving the region vulnerable to Iranian bombing, and he ultimately decided to cancel the airstrikes. In fact, the U.S. military has used approximately 1,200 Patriot missiles in the Middle East since last April. Military officials even explained that the arms inventory situation likely worsened over the past week as the bombing campaign against Iran intensified. Ultimately, the U.S. military suspended the airstrikes against Iran, which had continued for 13 days, starting on the 24th after two weeks, bringing the armed conflict between the two sides into a temporary lull. We have prepared a video with the details.
