— Since the beginning of Operation Epic Fury, 303 American soldiers have been injured. The vast majority suffered minor injuries, and 273 soldiers have already returned to duty, a spokesman for US Central Command (CENTCOM) told AFP.
Another American official, speaking on condition of anonymity, said that 10 soldiers were seriously injured during the war.
Since the war began, approximately 50 people have been killed in Iran's retaliatory attacks, including 13 American soldiers and 15 Israeli civilians.
The war in the Middle East began on February 28 with Israeli and US airstrikes on Iran. Tehran responded with attacks on both Israel and the countries of the Persian Gulf region, including American military bases and civilian facilities located there, such as airports and petrochemical installations.
