Washington: (RightNow) Eight US troops were injured in a recent missile attack by Iran. The attack occurred two weeks ago on a naval ship in the Strait of Hormuz.

According to US media, the number of injured personnel has now reached 861. Officials confirmed the incident nearly 10 days after it occurred on September 14.

US officials state that the injured personnel are out of danger. They received medical aid due to breathing difficulties and other symptoms.

This issue is significant as the Pentagon faces criticism for transparency in reporting the number of casualties in this conflict.

It is noteworthy that several US troops have been injured during the conflict with Iran. The Pentagon’s Defense Casualty Analysis System records these personnel.
