Six US service members have been killed in the ongoing conflict with Iran, and three American fighter jets were mistakenly shot down by an allied country. President Trump has already warned that more casualties are expected before the operation comes to an end.
US Central Command confirmed that the remains of two service members were recovered from a facility struck during Iran’s initial attacks in the region. These two deaths had not been previously reported or accounted for. Three other US service members were confirmed dead a day earlier, on Sunday.
