Iran full airspace closure

Nearly 100 U.S. service members have been injured in Iranian attacks on multiple military bases in the Middle East this month, according to U.S. officials speaking to CBS. The injuries, which include traumatic brain injuries, have largely been sustained through missile and drone strikes by Iran, in retaliation for prior U.S.-Israeli military actions. Despite the severity of some injuries, most affected personnel have reportedly returned to duty. These developments come amidst ongoing tensions in the 2026 Iran conflict, with a fragile ceasefire in place that has repeatedly been violated.
