The US Central Command on Saturday reported no American casualties following Iranian strikes, countering claims from Tehran of 50 United States personnel killed.
In a post on X, the US government department described the allegations as “false.”
“The Iranian regime claims that it has killed 50 U.S. service members. This is a LIE. There have been no reports of any U.S. casualties,” the statement read.
It also dismissed claims that a U.S. Navy ship was targeted, stating, “LIE. No U.S. Navy vessel has been struck; Armada is fully operational.”
This statement follows US President Donald Trump’s recent comments about a joint US-Israeli attack on Iran, made after he warned Iranian forces to disarm or face severe consequences.
In response, Iran launched attacks on US bases in five countries, including Saudi Arabia, Qatar, and the UAE.
