The US military has identified the first American soldiers killed in the recent conflict with Iran. Six soldiers died when a drone struck a command center in Port Shuaiba, Kuwait. Initially, three deaths were reported, but the toll rose after more bodies were found. The deceased include Capt Cody Khork, Sgt Noah Tietjens, Sgt Nicole Amor, and Sgt Declan Coady, all US Army Reserve members. The attack has raised questions about the security of the makeshift office space they were working in. The US has a significant military presence in Kuwait, with over 13,000 troops stationed there. In response to US and Israeli actions, Iran has launched missiles at US allies in the Gulf. Additionally, three US fighter jets were downed in a friendly fire incident, though the pilots survived. This conflict has led to increased tensions and rising oil and gas prices, impacting global markets.
