Aug. 6 (UPI) -- President Donald Trump on Thursday dismissed reports of munitions shortages due to U.S. attacks on Iran, saying those who leaked the information are being "hunted down."
"The U.S. has massive amounts of 'munitions,' especially of certain types," Trump wrote in a social media post. "Additionally, large amounts are being manufactured and shipped to the U.S. as needed. Defense companies are building the largest number of plants and factories in our country's history."
"The 'leakers' of these treasonous statements are being hunted down," he continued. "Long-term jail sentences will be sought!"
Multiple news outlets, including CBS News, reported this week that the United States has used almost all its stockpile of long-range precision missiles in the attacks on Iran. This includes most of its Army Tactical Missile Systems and Precision Strike Missiles.
