US reviewing military footprint after Iran strikes, Pentagon says

US reviewing military footprint after Iran strikes, Pentagon says The Pentagon said the United States is reviewing its military presence in the Middle East following strikes by Iran during a roughly 40-day conflict. Officials said they do not yet have a final assessment of the damage to US bases and facilities in the region. At a budget briefing, defence comptroller Jules Hurst said funding for repairs to affected installations is not included in the department’s 2027 budget request.
