Iranian Military Spokesperson Claims Heavy Casualties for US and Israel
An Iranian military spokesperson has asserted significant casualties and damage inflicted on US and Israeli forces since the conflict began.
The spokesperson stated that 800 American soldiers have been killed and 5,000 injured, while 1,321 Israeli troops have also lost their lives.
Additionally, the spokesperson claimed that 17 US military bases have been destroyed, with personnel relocated to hotels deemed a humiliating retreat by Iran.
