More than 750 U.S. service members wounded in Iran war
The number of U.S. service members reported wounded or killed in the Iran war has jumped to 774, after the Pentagon added scores of new troops to the wounded list in the last few days. To date, 18 of those troops were killed in the conflict and 756 were wounded, according to the Pentagon’s casualty reporting system. The numbers rose even as the United States has largely been in a ceasefire with Iran in recent weeks. Some of the added troop numbers may reflect lag time between an injury being documented in the military’s medical system and it showing up in the casualty database.
