At least 15 people have died and over 700 wounded, according to the outlet's analysis, but CENTCOM is not regularly updating those numbers."In 2024, during the Biden administration, the Pentagon provided The Intercept with detailed chronologies of attacks on U.S. bases in the Middle East that listed the specific outpost that was attacked, the type of strike, and whether — or how many — casualties resulted, along with an aggregate count of attacks by country. The Trump administration’s numbers, by comparison, lack detail and clarity," writes journalist Nick Turse.U.S. casualty statistics also do not include contractors who staff many of the U.S. bases and military installations in the region. https://www.instagram.com/p/DWq-fcqEeJO/?igsh=M2FubWJlYW1hd2Rm
