Dept. of Defense: U.S. Dropped 7,500 Bombs on Afghanistan in 2019
-----------------------------------------------------------------

The United States dropped more bombs on Afghanistan in 2019 than any
other year since the Pentagon began keeping a record in 2006. Data from
U.S. Central Command shows U.S. warplanes dropped nearly 7,500 bombs and
other munitions on Afghanistan last year, nearly eight times more than
in 2015.
