When President Barack Obama was running for office, he promised to scale back American military involvement around the world. Though fewer Americans have died in combat during his administration than under his predecessor George W. Bush, he didn’t keep his promise. In 2016, the United States dropped bombs on Afghanistan, Iraq, Libya, Pakistan, Somalia, Syria, and Yemen.
Now, the Council on Foreign Relations has calculated an estimate of the number of bombs that were dropped by the United States in 2016. They put the number at 26,171 bombs, which were dropped in those seven countries
Here’s the country-by-country breakdown:
Syria: 12,192
Iraq: 12,095
Afghanistan: 1,337
Libya: 496
Yemen: 34
Somalia: 14
Pakistan: 3
