According to The Washington Post, the Pentagon has asked the White House to approve a more than $200 billion funding request to Congress for the ongoing war with Iran.

Officials say the request would far exceed the cost of the air campaign so far and is aimed at rapidly replenishing and expanding stocks of key weapons systems used by the U.S. Army, U.S. Air Force, and U.S. Navy.

The proposal is expected to face significant resistance from both Democrats and Republicans in Congress.
