The U.S. has launched hundreds of Tomahawk missiles and thousands of JASSM missiles at Iran

During the war against Iran, the U.S. military deployed hundreds of Tomahawk cruise missiles and more than a thousand JASSM air-to-ground missiles.

This was reported by Bloomberg.

According to sources, hundreds of Tomahawks, costing about $2 million each, were used, as well as over a thousand less conspicuous JASSM missiles, each costing approximately $1.5 million.

Although cheaper JDAM munitions were also used in the strikes, long-range cruise missiles remain key due to the risks of close-range operations in certain areas of Iranian airspace.

Before the war began, the U.S. had about 4,000 Tomahawk missiles, with annual production at about 100 units. Meanwhile, Lockheed can produce up to 860 JASSM missiles per year.

These missiles are designed to strike targets at long range and penetrate air defense systems.

At least 2,400 interceptor missiles, primarily Patriot PAC-3 and GEM-T, were also used during the war. Before the start of hostilities, their stockpile in the Gulf states was estimated at fewer than 2,800 units.

Israel has resumed bombing the southern suburbs of Beirut and continues airstrikes in southern Lebanon. One of the strikes hit an army checkpoint, killing a soldier. 

Lebanese President Joseph Aoun also warned that any attempts to destabilize the country will be decisively stopped. The authorities are prepared to act decisively, including through arrests and the seizure of weapons. Aoun emphasized that no one in Lebanon wants a civil war, and those who try to take advantage of the situation will fail.

Iran has left the country without stable internet access for the second month in a row. The country’s authorities continue to block access to all social media platforms and many websites, leaving citizens with almost no online connectivity.
