President Trump asked Congress on Wednesday to approve nearly $88 billion to cover Iran war costs, farm aid and disaster recovery, Politico reported. The package includes $67.1 bln for the Pentagon, of which $21.0 bln is for replenishing munitions expended in the four-month Middle East conflict; $17.3 bln for military operations; $1.7 bln for readiness; and $1.5 bln for fuel.
