Pentagon Hiding US Casualties in Middle East Under Trump
An analysis reveals approximately 750 U.S. troops have been wounded or killed in the Middle East since October 2023, a figure the Pentagon has not publicly acknowledged. CENTCOM has provided outdated and low-ball casualty figures, failing to clarify military deaths and injuries, which includes at least 15 troops wounded in a recent Iranian attack. This lack of transparency has drawn criticism, with experts emphasizing the need for accurate reporting on the war’s costs to the American taxpayers. Furthermore, Iranian strikes have forced U.S. troops to relocate from bases to civilian infrastructure, potentially turning these locations into military targets.
