The U.S. military announced Sunday that a seventh American service member was killed in action during the war with Iran. The service member, who was not identified, died Saturday after suffering injuries during the first weekend of U.S.-Israeli strikes and ensuing Iranian counterattacks across the region, Central Command said.
The service member was “seriously wounded at the scene of an attack on U.S. troops” in Saudi Arabia on March 1, the military said in a statement, adding that they would not be identified until their next of kin was notified.
