According to the Pentagon, more than 624 military personnel have been injured due to the orders issued by President Donald Trump for attacks on Iran in February. Criticism arose due to the fact that the Department of Defense has changed casualty figures on its tracking site, reducing the number of dead from “Operation Epic Fury” to 14 from 18 by changing the status of four newly deceased soldiers under a special classification “Overseas Operations.” The critics accused the administration of attempting to cover up casualties caused by the war, while the Pentagon insisted it was only a temporary technical glitch.
