WASHINGTON, March 10 (Reuters) - As many ​as 150 U.S. troops have ‌been wounded in the 10-day-old war with Iran, two people familiar with the ​matter told Reuters on Tuesday.

The ​casualty figure has not been previously ⁠reported. Prior to Reuters' publication of ​the figure, the Pentagon had only disclosed ​eight U.S. personnel seriously injured.

In a statement after Reuters published its report, the Pentagon estimated ​the figure to be approximately 140 ​wounded and said the vast majority of them ‌were ⁠minor.

"Since the start of Operation Epic Fury, approximately 140 U.S. service members have been wounded over 10 ​days of ​sustained attacks," ⁠said chief Pentagon spokesperson Sean Parnell.

8. I hope Reuters is a credible enough source.

For the few people I’ve seen around here who take the Trump regime at their word when it comes to casualties and have poo pood the concerns of other posters that a man whose mouth spews lies like a fire hose might not be upfront about casualties..
