Iran Fatalities Details

Iran News

10/8/2026 CNN : US has lost or sustained damage to 81 military aircraft worth up to $3.3 billion in Iran war, congressional report says
The United States military has had 81 aircraft destroyed or damaged in the war with Iran, a Congressional Research Service report released this week says. The number includes both airplanes and helicopters as well as drones, with the MQ-9 Reaper drone – used for intelligence, surveillance and reconnaissance, close air support and combat search and rescue – accounting for more than half of the losses.
10/8/2026 CBSNews : Newly obtained footage, witness accounts detail Iran attack, and U.S. retreat, at major post in Kuwait
New videos obtained exclusively by CBS News show Iranian attacks on a major U.S. military base in Kuwait as the war with Iran kicked off seven months ago. American forces faced ballistic missiles, drones and what witnesses described as Iranian F-5 fighter jets. The attacks on Camp Buehring offer a window into the strain Iranian attacks placed on American forces during the opening days of the war. CBS News has learned that soldiers defending the base ran critically low on .50-caliber ammunition as some soldiers were repositioned into the Udari Desert in Kuwait. Two soldiers were injured by lightning there in late April, according to U.S. officials with knowledge of the matter.

9/18/2026 Bloomberg : Inside the US ‘Kill Chain’ That Destroyed an Iranian School
Within hours of a Feb. 28 missile attack that hit an Iranian school, some Pentagon personnel knew the US was responsible, according to officials involved in an internal investigation of the incident. That probe found what the officials now describe as a cascade of preventable failures. Two Tomahawk missiles struck the Shajarah Tayyebeh Elementary School building and its grounds that Saturday, killing more than 150 people, including at least 123 children. The strikes devastated the two-story school, which was built on land that was part of a military compound in the southern Iranian town of Minab. In terms of child casualties, it’s the deadliest American military targeting error of the 21st century.

9/25/2026 WaPo : More U.S. troops have died amid Iran war than Pentagon has disclosed publicly
More American service members have died in the Middle East during the ongoing Iran war than the Pentagon has disclosed publicly, according to six U.S. officials familiar with the Defense Department’s internal casualty accounting data.

9/16/2026 CBSNews : New photos show widespread damage at US positions caused by Iranian attacks
New photos obtained exclusively by CBS News reveal for the first time the widespread damage and destruction of buildings and vehicles at multiple U.S. positions across the Middle East, as a result of Iranian missile and drone attacks. The images were sent to CBS News by active service members on condition of anonymity because of rigid media restrictions within the military. "This is major damage to our bases that hasn't been communicated to the American public," one deployed service member told CBS News. "We're standing there with our eyes closed getting punched in the face."
9/12/2026 BBC : Saudi Arabia shuts key oil pipeline after drone attack launched from Iraq

9/12/2026 NYTimes : Iran Finds Escalation Is Fruitful Path to Leverage in War With U.S.
The routes to export oil out of the Middle East are diminishing. The price of energy is soaring. And Iran’s neighbors could be about to endorse some measure of its authority over the Strait of Hormuz. In the past week, Iran and its allies have used military escalation to upend any minimal sense of stability in the region, most dramatically in Yemen. That is shifting the momentum in Iran’s war with the United States to its advantage.
