US military reports three service members killed as Iran claims USS Abraham Lincoln was struck
The US military says three service members have been killed in action and five seriously wounded as part of the operation against Iran.“Several others sustained minor shrapnel injuries and concussions — and are in the process of being returned to duty. Major combat operations continue and our response effort is ongoing,” the US Central Command said in a statement.
“The situation is fluid, so out of respect for the families, we will withhold additional information, including the identities of our fallen warriors, until 24 hours after next of kin have been notified,” it added.
Iran’s Revolutionary Guards says it attacked the aircraft carrier USS Abraham Lincoln in the Gulf after the country’s Supreme Leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei was killed by US and Israeli air strikes.
“The US aircraft carrier Abraham Lincoln was struck by four ballistic missiles,” the Guard said in a statement carried by local media, warning “the land and sea will increasingly become the graveyard of the terrorist aggressors”.
The USS Abraham Lincoln has been operating in the Arabian Sea since the end of January.
There was no immediate confirmation of damage or casualties by the US military.
