Up to 150 US troops wounded in Iran war despite Pentagon claims: report
As many as 150 U.S. troops have been wounded during the war with Iran, according to a new report on Tuesday.
People familiar with the matter told Reuters that the number of wounded was far higher than the Pentagon has disclosed. The Defense Department has said that seven service members were killed in action.
The Pentagon did not respond to Reuters' reporting.
"It's within that ballpark," White House Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt told reporters later on Tuesday.
President Donald Trump and Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth have said they expect additional casualties.
