Pentagon Revises US Soldier Death Toll in Iran Conflict Amid Controversy

Washington DC. A new controversy has arisen regarding the official list of soldiers killed in the Iran war released by the US Department of Defense (Pentagon). According to The New York Times, the list mentioned the deaths of 18 US soldiers as of Wednesday. However, on Thursday, that number was reduced to 14.

The Pentagon's Defense Casualty Analysis System website still shows that only 14 American soldiers have been killed in the Iran war under Operation Epic Fury. However, the Pentagon separately announced through a press release the information that the bodies of four soldiers killed last week were brought to America.
