They Will Be Avenged’: Trump Reacts to First US Casualties in Iran
President Donald Trump vowed that the deaths of three U.S. service members during the escalating conflict with Iran will be avenged. In a video message posted Sunday, Trump called the fallen troops “true American patriots” who made the ultimate sacrifice, adding that “there will likely be more” casualties as the military campaign continues. The comments come as U.S. and Israel forces intensify strikes across Iran, targeting ballistic missile sites and naval assets following the killing of Supreme Leader Ali Khamenei. Iran has vowed retaliation, launching missiles toward Israel and Gulf states. The three American service members killed mark the first confirmed U.S. casualties in the conflict.
