220 US forces killed or wounded in Iranian retaliatory strikes in past 24 hours

Saturday, 07 March 2026


An Iranian Army spokesman says 220 American soldiers and commanders have been killed or wounded and significant damage has been inflicted on American assets in the region in retaliatory attacks by the Iranian Armed Forces over the past 24 hours.

The spokesperson for Iran’s Khatam al-Anbiya Central Headquarters, Lieutenant Colonel Ibrahim Zolfaghari, said on Saturday that 21 American service members were killed and a number of others injured during Iranian attacks on the US Navy’s Fifth Fleet in Bahrain.

He added that some 200 American personnel were also killed and wounded during strikes against the US military base in Al Dhafra Air Base.

The Armed Forces also targeted an oil tanker owned by the United States in the northern part of the Persian Gulf, he noted.


US confirms Iran destroyed $300m radar system in Jordan
The US confirmed that Iran has destroyed a key $300 million radar system used by US THAAD missile defense systems at Muwaffaq Salti Air Base in Jordan.

The US and Israel waged a fresh round of unlawful military aggression on Iran on February 28, some eight months after they carried out unprovoked attacks on the country and its nuclear facilities.

The attacks led to the martyrdom of Leader of the Islamic Revolution Ayatollah Seyyed Ali Khamenei and hundreds of Iranian civilians, including women and children, as well as military commanders.

Iran began to swiftly retaliate against the strikes by launching barrages of missile and drone attacks on the Israeli-occupied territories as well as on US bases in regional countries.

Iranian officials have said that only US and Israeli assets and interests are being targeted and that the Islamic Republic has no enmity toward the host countries and respects their sovereignty.

Lol... That cracked me up.

@FreeStuffsNg, I like you for a lot of your international finance and foreign affairs analyses but this figure presented in your post from the Iranian military spokesperson doesn't mesh with reality.

If the alleged death/wounded figures of 220 American forces in just 7 days of land, sea, and air combat are NOT officially released from the U.S. Central Command (CENTCOM), then it's mere Iranian war "propaganda and hyper slander." As of today, based off of CENTCOM information, the official death figures of United States military personnel from the United States and Israel vs. Iran War stands at 6 brave United States male and female warriors.

NO doubt, more death figures will emerge BEFORE the end of war hostilities but it ain't gonna be close to 220 and it certainly won't be up to 100 deaths either when the total surrender of the minions and vestiges of the IRRESPONSIBLE Shiite Iranian Mullahs is achieved by April 2026.

Funny how Nigerians who are not on the battlefield are debunking casualties of wars from US military


You think drone missiles are respected of any country?



Keep dreaming higher



But why can't Israel soldiers invade Iran as they did to Gaza ?

They always wait for US to take the lead while they follow yet our blooders are claiming that they are super power
You must be looking for something to console yourself on your losses.....sorry bro...

Most of the casualities will likely come from here. The Iranians have been hitting the hotels the US moved its forces to after fleeing their bases.

JUST IN: Iran’s Larijani says US soldiers have been captured

The head of Iran’s National Security Council says that “a number” of US soldiers have been captured since the start of hostilities one week ago.

He did not specify how many were captured or the circumstances of their capture.
How old is this free stuff guy for God sake. Even if you have to support Russian and Iran like you always do, u really don't need to be foolish . I thot u had a brain 220 US military casualties and you think tat can be kept secret , Grow up and nairaland need to something abt posting fake news of thus magnitude cos it might hurt this site unexpectedly.

The way Nigerian hype the USA and military personnel, you will think that they are immortal. When USA AND ISRAEL brings there casualty in the war, it accepted and no argument but Iran brings it own, you will hear sentences like, it fake, it AI, I cannot be true. If American and Israel are sincere, why controlling the media on what to report about TEL AVIV
Nothing like controlling the media when it comes to deaths of soldiers....because the families will definitely talk....and military are always given state burials for final respect

Fake News. Nairaland Mods, don't let these people spoil your platform.

CENTCOM did head count and no US soldier is missing apart from the 6 killed in first few days.

No US soldier was killed.

Iran is relying on fake news to win the war.
So if US says no American solder was killed.. you'd believe
And if the same Israel says no civilian was killed during the heaving bombardment of Tell Aviv, Jerusalem and Haifa, you'd swallow hook line a d sinker.
But if US says they killed one million Iranian soldiers, that one is very easy to believe cos US can't lie and do propaganda?

Grow up
