    (International: Al Furat News) An American newspaper revealed that more American soldiers were wounded in the Iranian bombing on Ein al-Assad base in Anbar province, for treatment outside Iraq.
    The Washington Post reported that the Pentagon announced {yesterday} Tuesday, nearly two weeks after President Donald Trump and defense officials initially said that no one was injured. More American service personnel were moved out of Iraq to receive medical treatment and evaluation after the Iranian missile attack on military installations. over there.
    The Pentagon said on Friday that 11 service personnel needed medical treatment outside Iraq, while US military officials on Tuesday refused to specify the number of people receiving care, but said that "additional" personnel had been sent to the Landstuhl Regional Medical Center in Germany.
    Officials left the possibility of increasing the number in the coming days.
    "The health and safety of all service members is a matter of great concern to all administration leaders and we greatly appreciate the care these members have received and are still receiving at the hands of our medical professionals," said US Army Major Spokesman Pete Ryordan.
    He said in a statement. "With continued medical treatment and theater evaluations, additional service personnel have been identified as suffering potential injuries."
    "Because of the abundance of caution, these service members were moved to Landstuhl, Germany to conduct further assessments and necessary treatment on an outpatient basis. Given the nature of the injuries already observed, it is possible to identify additional injuries in the future."
    The statement did not address the case of the first 11 service personnel transferred from Iraq, and US defense officials said Tuesday evening that they had no more information about their participation.
    The injuries arose after Iranian forces fired 11 missiles on January 8 at Ain al-Assad Air Force Base, west of Baghdad, and one in the northern city of Erbil, in response to the US killing of Iranian General Qassem Soleimani.
    There were more than 1,000 American troops in Assad at the time of the attack, US defense officials say.
    The shelling left deep craters and charred debris in several locations at the Iraqi base.
    US officials initially said that no service personnel had been killed or injured, and indicated that the United States was not looking for additional armed conflict with Iran.
    "No Americans were injured in last night's attack by the Iranian regime. We have not suffered casualties. All of our soldiers are safe, and little damage has been done to our military bases," Trump said shortly after the attack.
    But concussion-like symptoms - which sometimes do not appear immediately - have caused increased medical attention.
    On January 13, military officials in Assad told The Washington Post that "dozens" of servicemen suffer from concussion-like symptoms. Jonathan Hoffman, the chief Pentagon spokesman, said on Friday that the first three departed on a regularly scheduled flight to Camp Arifjan in Kuwait on January 10.
    Hoffman said that eight US service members departed on another regular flight to Landstuhl on January 15. Defense Minister Mark Esper was notified of 11 patients that day, and defense officials revealed treatment that day. The first defense reported the evictions that night.
    Hoffman said on Friday that Trump's comments to the nation the morning after the attack reflected "accurate and honest information he has received." Reporting requirements section. Finished
