US Military Allows Some Iranian Projectiles to Reach Targets, Officials Say

WASHINGTON – The United States military has allowed some Iranian missiles and attack drones to penetrate air defense systems, two senior U.S. officials stated. Commanders made this decision to conserve the Pentagon's diminishing supply of interceptor missiles, officials said.

NBC News correspondent Courtney Kube reported on this strategy. The approach involves a selective engagement of incoming projectiles from Iran.

Officials did not specify the number or type of projectiles allowed through. They also did not detail the locations where such incidents occurred or the extent of any resulting damage.
