WHAT HAPPENED
The US military said the war with Iran has caused an ammunition shortfall, while China urged an end to the conflict and separately called for an end to the US military buildup in space. The reports indicate a broader strategic strain beyond the battlefield.
SO WHAT?
A confirmed munitions shortage could constrain US military operations and signal wider escalation and resource pressures from the Iran war.
