Middle East Crisis: Amid the ongoing military tension between Iran and America, the Pentagon has admitted that about 100 American soldiers have been injured in Iran’s retaliatory attacks. According to US Defense Ministry spokesman Sean Parnell, these soldiers were injured in the attacks that took place after July 7. Most of these soldiers had minor head injuries and almost all have returned to duty.

Delayed due to security reasons

America said that the delay in making public the information about injured soldiers was done due to security reasons. Earlier a report had claimed that the US Defense Department was hiding information to the loss of soldiers. Meanwhile, attacks between the two countries continue. Iran targeted the areas where American military bases are present. In response, America carried out air strikes on many cities of Iran.

According to Iranian media reports, the attacks took place in Abadan, Bandar Abbas, Bushehr, Chabahar and some other areas. At the same time, information has come to light that Iran has also targeted power and water plants in Kuwait.
