IRGC spox: 650 casualties for US military in two days as Iran missiles force aircraft carrier to flee
Snip:
A spokesman for the Islamic Revolution Guards Corps (IRGC) says more than 650 US military personnel have been killed and wounded within the first two days of Iran's retaliatory Operation True Promise 4 by Iranian Armed Forces against US military installations and warships across West Asia.
"In the first two days of the war, 650 American troops were killed and wounded," Brigadier General Ali Mohammad Naeini stated on Tuesday.
He emphasized that it was natural for the US military to deny or conceal the casualties; nevertheless, Iranian intelligence as well as all field reports confirm the toll.
He said that the Iranian strikes, which included missile and drone attacks, against US naval assets and military headquarters in Bahrain, forced the USS Abraham Lincoln aircraft carrier to flee towards the southern Indian Ocean.
