Washington: The ongoing war between America and Iran is now costing heavily for the US Army. US Army officials are admitting that Iran is not as weak as Trump had considered. America has suffered another major setback in this war. The Pentagon said that another American soldier injured in the Iranian attack has died. With this, the number of American soldiers killed in this war has increased to seven. According to the American Central Command, this soldier was injured on March 1. That day, Iran attacked a military base in Saudi Arabia where American soldiers were deployed. Preparations were being made to send this seriously injured soldier to the American military hospital in Germany for better treatment, but he died on Saturday night.

Continuous deaths due to America-Iran war

America made the mistake of considering Iran as weak

According to the New York Times report, American military officials say that the losses suffered in the very first week of the war have made it clear that Iran is not as weak as the Trump administration had thought. The Trump administration was believing that Iran would become weak after the death of Ali Khamenei, but the opposite happened. Iran has neither stopped the attacks nor is retreating. Iran has continuously targeted American targets. American officials said that this time Iran has completely changed. This is because till now Iran used to give warning before the attack, but this time the attacks are neither limited nor are they being carried out with warning.

When will the US-Iran war end?

Meanwhile, Trump has said that he and Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu will together decide when the war with Iran will end. In an interview with The Times of Israel, Trump said that this decision would be ‘mutual’. Although he made it clear that the final decision would be his, but Netanyahu’s opinion would also be included in it. Trump also claimed that if America and Israel had not acted together, Iran would have destroyed Israel. According to him, both the countries together have weakened the force which wanted to destroy Israel. However, the White House has indicated that this war may continue for a few more weeks.
