—❗️🇺🇸/🇮🇷 Senior U.S. Officials to the Washington Post:

'Inside the Pentagon, and among some members of the Trump administration, there was deepening concern on Sunday that the Iran conflict could spiral out of control.

'The mood here is intense and paranoid', one person said.

There is anxiety among senior leaders that the fighting will extend for weeks, further stressing limited U.S. air defense stockpiles.

'There is concern about this lasting more than a few days', said another person. 'I don't think people have fully absorbed it yet, like, what that has done to our stockpiles. If often takes two or three interceptors to ensure a missile is stopped.'
