Pentagon's Official Casualty Count in War Against Iran No Longer Includes 4 Fallen Soldiers
· Telemundo McAllen (KTLM)
The Pentagon has removed the names of four U.S. soldiers killed in recent conflicts with Iran from its official casualty count, placing them in a new category called 'Overseas Operations.' This change raises questions about the accuracy of military casualty reporting amid escalating tensions in the region. The Defense Casualty Analysis System (DCAS) previously reported 18 deaths and 482 injuries, but after the reclassification, the numbers dropped to 14 deaths and 420 injuries. The U.S. military has been actively engaged in operations against Iranian forces since July 7, following a breakdown of a ceasefire agreement. The Pentagon has not held a press briefing on the war since May.
