US spending on ‘reckless’ Iran war could have saved 87m lives, says UN

The UN's humanitarian agency head, Tom Fletcher, criticized the $2 billion weekly cost of the US's 'reckless' Iran war, stating the funds could have saved 87 million lives. He warned against the normalization of violent rhetoric, such as threats to bomb Iran 'back to the stone ages,' which risks enabling autocrats to use similar tactics.
