The human cost of Operation Epic Fury is becoming clearer as updated casualty reports reveal a significant rise in wounded U.S. personnel since the conflict began on February 28.
While early Pentagon briefings reported lower numbers, new figures indicate that around 150 U.S. service members have been injured, with cases ranging from minor blast effects to severe combat trauma.
Pentagon spokesperson Sean Parnell said roughly 140 of the injuries occurred during the first ten days of Iranian retaliatory strikes. Of those wounded, 108 have already returned to duty, while eight remain in critical condition receiving specialized medical care.
Officials say some of the injuries include traumatic brain injuries (TBI) caused by repeated exposure to explosions, which can take time to diagnose and report. Many of the incidents were linked to drone and missile attacks targeting U.S. bases in Kuwait and Saudi Arabia.
Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth has acknowledged that additional casualties are possible as operations continue, even as the Pentagon reports major progress in degrading Iran’s missile launch capabilities.
The rising injury toll has also sparked debate on Capitol Hill, with lawmakers calling for clearer public briefings on the long-term military, human, and economic costs of the conflict.

Joy Behar slammed Donald Trump during a heated segment on The View, accusing the president of creating “chaos” and economic pain.
“Every day I wake up and he has created more chaos, more misery around the world,” Behar said, arguing the economy is “going down the toilet,” gas prices are rising, and the country is caught in escalating global tensions.
She also criticized Republicans in Congress, saying the party “will not stand up to this fool,” and claiming Americans feel increasingly powerless as political divisions deepen.Joy Behar slammed Donald Trump during a heated segment on The View, accusing the president of creating “chaos” and economic pain. “Every day I wake up and he has created more chaos, more misery around the world,” Behar said, arguing the economy is “going down the toilet,” gas prices are rising, and the country is caught in escalating global tensions.
