Pentagon says 140 US service members have been wounded since the start of the Iran war
Add ToI as a Preferred Source on GoogleThe Pentagon says that about 140 US service members have been wounded in the 10 days of conflict with Iran.
“The vast majority of these injuries have been minor, and 108 service members have already returned to duty,” Pentagon spokesman Sean Parnell says in an emailed statement.
Eight US service members are currently “severely injured,” Parnell adds.
The new figure is the first insight into the broader toll of injuries that have been sustained by US troops in the wake of a barrage of retaliatory rocket and drone strikes from Iran that have also claimed the lives of seven soldiers in Kuwait and Saudi Arabia.
