After Iraq's invasion of Kuwait, the U.S. led a [[United Nations Security Council\|UN Security Council]] effort that imposed comprehensive sanctions and a military blockade on Iraq, beginning on August 6, 1990. During the war, coalition forces dropped over 88,500 tons of bombs, extensively targeting Iraq's civilian infrastructure—including hospitals, schools, power, water, and sanitation systems—alongside military forces. An estimated 125,000 Iraqi soldiers were killed. The sanctions and regular aerial bombardments, which continued through the [[Bill Clinton\|Clinton]] administration and up to the [[Iraq War\|2003 invasion]], had severe humanitarian consequences, with some estimates citing over one million Iraqi deaths from the combined effects over 13 years.<ref>Becker, Richard.
