Operation Epic Fury killed three U.S. service members and wounded five seriously, with ongoing combat targeting Iran's leadership and military infrastructure, CENTCOM said.
- U.S. Central Command announced Sunday that three U.S. service members were killed and five wounded during combat operations against Iran, the military said.
- The campaign began Saturday with U.S.-Israeli strikes targeting Iran’s leadership and military infrastructure, killing the Supreme Leader, and prompting Iranian retaliations, officials said.
- Officials said identities of the dead are withheld for 24 hours after next-of-kin notification, and several troops with minor injuries are being returned to duty.
- CENTCOM said major combat operations and its response effort remain ongoing, while airports in Dubai and the region face closures with widespread flight cancellations for March 1.
- The strikes have reverberated globally, raising fears of wider conflict and disruptions to international stability, with analysts warning of potential market spikes and the U.S. urging Iranians to `take over`.
