The Washington Post wrote in a report on Friday, September 27 that the number of American soldiers killed in the Iran war "was more than the Pentagon announced."
בתגובה, פיט הגסט, שר ההגנה האמריקני, כינה את הדיווח הזה "שקרי לחלוטין" ו"מזוייף" והאשים את העיתון בפרסום מידע כוזב.
🔸 הוושינגטון פוסט פרסם את הטענה האחרונה שלו, תוך ציטוט של "שישה פקידים אמריקאים שמכירים את המנגנון הפנימי של משרד ההגנה האמריקני בתחום חישוב הנפגעים".
These five American officials, who preferred to remain anonymous due to the sensitivity of the issue, confirmed that the number of soldiers killed was at least 22.
This while the Pentagon announced the dead in this war as 18 tons.
At the same time, the Pentagon's first official report on the Iran war was recently published; a report confirming that several US military facilities and installations in the region were badly damaged or destroyed. In this report, among other things, it is mentioned that an F-35 aircraft was badly damaged.
