- Soldiers seriously wounded in an Iranian drone strike told the AP that the military's medical system failed them, sharing their accounts on the record.
- Soldiers and Gold Star families are pressing Army leadership in the aftermath of the deadly strike, according to a Yahoo exclusive.
- At least one soldier wounded in the drone attack was awarded a Purple Heart, and the strike killed six service members in the first days of the war.
Why it matters: Six troops killed and multiple seriously wounded in a single Iranian drone strike represents a significant battlefield loss, and the soldiers' public accusation that the military's own medical system failed them puts Army leadership on the defensive over casualty care during the war's earliest days.
