Pentagon updates Iran war casualties to over 600 wounded

The Pentagon updated its war casualty database over the weekend, adding more than 140 wounded service members and introducing a new category for operations starting July 7. The official toll now stands at 18 killed and 624 wounded since the US launched its war against Iran on February 28. The move is part of the Trump administration's interpretation of the War Powers Act, treating the conflict as two separate operations, which lawmakers from both parties have challenged as a legal ruse.
