The US Central Command (CENTCOM) has announced the death of two additional US servicemembers during Operation Epic Fury in Iran, raising the total number of casualties since the beginning of the war to six. The soldiers were killed during the Iranian attack on US bases in the Middle East, with their bodies being retrieved recently. Major combat operations are ongoing as American forces continue strikes against Iran-backed Houthi targets. The remains of two previously unaccounted-for service members have been recovered from a facility struck during Iran's initial attacks.
