CENTCOM Update on Recently Fallen U.S. Service Members TAMPA, Fla. — Yesterday, U.S. Central Command (CENTCOM) announced the passing of two U.S. service members and the missing status of one in Jordan following an Iranian attack on July 17. After a thorough search, U.S. military personnel found unidentified remains at the location earlier today. An examination process to verify the remains is ongoing. Separately, a U.S. service member in northern Iraq was killed in action July 18 during a controlled detonation of unexploded ordnance from a downed Iranian one-way attack drone. A second service member was wounded and continues to receive medical treatment for a minor injury. CENTCOM is withholding additional information, including the identities of the missing and fallen warriors, out of respect for the families during the notification process.











CENTCOM Statement on Recently Fallen, Missing U.S. Service Members TAMPA, Fla. — On July 17, two U.S. service members in Jordan were killed in action as U.S. Central Command (CENTCOM) and partner forces defended against Iranian ballistic missile and drone attacks. Additionally, one service member is currently missing. Four American service members were medically evacuated to Jordanian hospitals. They have since been discharged. Other personnel who were evaluated for minor injuries have returned to duty. Out of respect for the families, CENTCOM will withhold additional information, including the identities of the fallen warriors, until 24 hours after the next of kin have been notified.






Why is a national, government-supported museum platforming an extremist who has been criticized by the Canadian government for antisemitism? In his address last month on Canada's antisemitism crisis, Prime Minister Carney said public institutions must uphold basic standards and ensure that no Canadian community is driven from those institutions by hatred. Yet @CMHR_News' controversial Nakba exhibit includes a resource guide referencing Francesca Albanese, who has been repeatedly condemned by governments, including Canada, for Jew hatred and who the Canadian government itself has refused to meet with in an official capacity. As the Heritage Minister has said, the exhibit is a failure of curation and the Board of Trustees must "do its job."
