Pentagon: Casualties likely from US strikes on Iran-linked targets, no US injuries

The Pentagon said on Monday that the recent US strikes on Iran-affiliated targets in Iraq and Syria probably resulted in casualties, although an assessment was still in progress.

"It's fair to conclude that there likely were casualties associated with these strikes," Air Force Major General Patrick Ryder told reporters.

Ryder also mentioned that since the strikes on Friday, US troops in Syria had been targeted in two separate attacks, yet there were no injuries.
