3 US troops killed and 5 are seriously wounded during Iran strikes, military says

Three American service members were killed and five seriously wounded during U.S. strikes on Iran, the military said, the first American casualties in a campaign President Donald Trump warned could last about four weeks. U.S. Central Command announced the deaths on X, called the situation fluid, and withheld identities pending family notification, adding several others suffered minor shrapnel injuries and concussions. Iran has hit U.S. bases in Bahrain and the United Arab Emirates after U.S.-Israeli strikes that killed Ayatollah Ali Khamenei, while the U.S. denied claims the USS Abraham Lincoln was struck. Trump called the fallen "great people."
