RESULTED IN THE DEATH OF THREE. OF THESE AMERICANS. HI, JENNIFER. >> I HAVE LEARNED MORE DETAILS. ABOUT THAT STRIKE THAT KILLED. THE THREE AMERICANS IN JORDAN. I'VE LEARNED THAT THERE WERE. DOZENS OF BALLISTIC MISSILES AND. DRONES THAT WERE FIRED THAT. NIGHT ON JULY 17TH AT THE BASE.

WHERE THESE AMERICANS WERE BEING. HOUSED AND IT WAS AT LEAST ONE. AND POSSIBLY MORE BALLISTIC. MISSILES THAT STRUCK THE BASE. AND CAUSED THE DEVASTATION THAT. LED TO THE DEATHS. IT'S IMPORTANT TO POINT OUT THAT. THE IRANIANS HAVE FIRED MORE. THAN 8500 DRONES AND MISSILES AT. US BASES SINCE THE WAR BEGAN. FOUR MONTHS AGO. AS THE PRESIDENT APPEARS POISED. TO EXPAND THE WAR YESTERDAY ON. CAPITOL HILL, AS YOU MENTIONED, A HEATED FIGHT TOOK PLACE OVER.

FUNDING THE IRAN WAR WITH. SECRETARY HEGSETH SAYING THAT. THE WAR SO FAR HAS COST AN. ESTIMATED $37.5 BILLION. MOST MILITARY EXPERTS BELIEVE. THAT IS A VAST UNDERREPORTING OF.

APPROVED A REQUEST TO USE. BRITISH BASES FOR POTENTIAL. FUTURE STRIKES. ANOTHER INDICATION THAT THE. WHITE HOUSE PLANS TO EXPAND THE. WAR BUT I'M TOLD THE PRESIDENT. HAS NOT TAKEN A DECISION YET. WE ALSO HAVE NEW DETAILS FROM. FRIENDS AND FAMILY OF THE FIRST.
