May 11 (UPI) -- Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth said his department will "review" comments made by Sen. Mark Kelly, D-Ariz., about the U.S. military's weapons stockpiles.

Hegseth's renewed criticism into Kelly came in response to the senator's appearance Sunday on CBS' Face the Nation. Kelly, a retired Navy captain and former astronaut, said he received Pentagon briefings and it was "shocking ... how deep we have gone into these magazines."

"We've expended a lot of munitions. And that means the American people are less safe. Whether it's a conflict in the western Pacific with China or somewhere else in the world, the munitions are depleted," Kelly said.

In a post on X on Sunday evening, Hegseth questioned whether Kelly violated his oath by discussion the matter publicly.
