Trump: Every American bomb dropped on Yemen costs us a million dollars

WORLD, Feb. 18 (YPA) -Former US President Donald Trump stated that every bomb dropped on Yemen costs the United States one million dollars.

Speaking to his supporters in Michigan, Trump said, “We are bombing Yemen <…>, each bomb is worth a million dollars. <..However, the most important thing is you (US Air Force. — Ed.) you kill a lot of people.”

Trump previously directed scathing criticism at President Joe Biden’s administration after US forces conducted strikes on sites in Yemen.

He wrote on his “Truth Social” social media account, “Let me clarify. We are dropping bombs all over the Middle East again, where we defeated ‘ISIS’! And our Secretary of Defense, who has been missing for 5 days, is running the war from his mobile device in the hospital.”

Trump added, “Now we have wars in Ukraine, Israel, and Yemen, but there is no ‘war’ on our southern border,” referring to the US administration’s refusal to address Republican demands to take action to protect the border with Mexico due to the influx of migrants.

The United States and Britain conducted a series of strikes on sites in Sanaa, Hodeida, Saada, and other areas in Yemen since Friday, January 12, alleging that they were in response to attacks by the “Houthi” movement on commercial ships in the Red Sea.
