Did President Donald Trump confront Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth over shrinking US missile stockpiles during the Iran conflict? A report by The Washington Post claimed Trump questioned why he had been told the weapons shortage "had been fixed," as depleted missile inventories reportedly began limiting America's military options.

The White House has strongly denied the report, calling it "100% fake news" and insisting President Trump has "the utmost confidence" in Hegseth. The Pentagon also rejected claims of depleted stockpiles and internal disagreements, describing them as "equally fictional."

The controversy comes amid growing scrutiny of America's military readiness after months of intensive operations against Iran. The outcome could influence future US military strategy, defense production, Middle East security, support for allies, and the global balance of power.
