The Pentagon did not publicly disclose three Iranian attacks that reportedly wounded dozens of U.S. service members in Jordan before last week's bombing that killed two American soldiers, according to a New York Times report.

The newspaper, citing anonymous U.S. officials, reported the three previously undisclosed attacks took place during the week leading up to Friday's Iranian missile strike, which also left one U.S. service member missing.

The earlier attacks reportedly injured dozens of troops and damaged several helicopters but were never publicly announced.

The report comes as the Trump administration continues its military campaign against Iran while vowing Tehran will never acquire a nuclear weapon.

According to the Times, U.S. Central Command publicly described recent strikes on Iranian military targets as retaliation for attacks on commercial shipping in the Strait of Hormuz but made no mention of the earlier attacks on American forces in Jordan.

Military officials told the newspaper the command is not required to announce troop injuries, especially when service members quickly return to duty.

Officials also reportedly argued that withholding operational details prevents Iran from gaining intelligence that could improve future missile and drone attacks against U.S. forces across the Middle East.

Pentagon spokesman Sean Parnell strongly denied any suggestion the War Department intentionally concealed casualties.

"Claims of concealment are fabrications meant to further distress the American people in the wake of three service members killed in action," Parnell told the Times.

He said the Pentagon's Defense Casualty Analysis System is "regularly updated" with information on U.S. casualties.

"Cherry-picking raw numbers without context paints a deliberately misleading and incomplete picture," Parnell added.

According to the Pentagon's casualty database, 427 U.S. service members have been wounded during the Iran conflict.

Parnell noted that figure includes "everything from minor sprained ankles during routine training to incidents entirely unrelated to combat operations."

On Saturday, Central Command said four service members wounded in Friday's attack were treated at Jordanian hospitals and released. It also said additional troops suffered minor injuries and returned to duty but did not specify how many.

The statement did not reference the three earlier attacks described by the Times.

President Donald Trump honored the fallen troops during a brief interview with NewsNation, saying they died "in service of our country" while reaffirming the administration's goal of "never allowing Iran to have a nuclear weapon."

War Secretary Pete Hegseth said on social media that the deaths of the two soldiers would only strengthen America's resolve as operations against Iran continue.
