US Senators Elizabeth Warren and Chris Murphy criticise President Donald Trump over the US-Israel war on Iran in separate posts on X, Al Jazeera reports.

Warren said at least 23 US service members have been killed and more than $45bn in “taxpayer dollars” has been spent during the war.

“Nobody can seem to explain what this war has accomplished or when it will end,” Warren said, adding that the conflict is nearing the eight-month mark.

Murphy condemned the administration’s strategy, writing that “Trump started a war with Iran with no workable plan to protect our troops, diplomats or billion dollar bases. Every citizen should be furious about this. Just total, utter incompetence.”
