Hegseth says US ‘can’t stop everything’ that Iran fires even as he asserts air dominance

The US has spared “no expense or capability” to enhance air defense systems to protect American forces and allies in the Middle East, Hegseth told reporters at the Pentagon days after the US and Israel attacked Iran in a war that has widened throughout the region.
