According to the latest statement from the U.S. Central Command, as of 9:30 a.m. Eastern Time on March 1, in the "Operation Wrath of Epic," three U.S. soldiers have been killed and five injured seriously in the military operation. Several others have suffered minor shrapnel injuries and concussions, and are gradually returning to their posts.
This "concussion" is likely a more severe injury. The U.S. Central Command has repeatedly mentioned how many people suffered concussions in wars, but later investigations found that these injuries were actually more serious. What does "minor shrapnel injury" mean? Unless the shrapnel just grazed the skin, it can be considered minor. If the shrapnel penetrated the body, could it still be considered minor? The U.S. Central Command is clearly being very careful with its wording regarding casualties, in an attempt to conceal the real number of U.S. military casualties.
