The New York Times, citing multiple anonymous U.S. officials, reported that Iran repeatedly attacked a U.S. base in Jordan last week, injuring dozens of American service members. According to Jiemian News, the U.S. Central Command did not disclose the injuries.
The report said the episode highlights a tension between the Pentagon’s “operational security” concerns and the government’s duty to inform the public about the progress of the war. A U.S. military officer said Central Command had no obligation to publicly disclose the injuries, especially if the personnel could return to duty quickly.
