Iran war live: US military completes ninth night of strikes on Iran

Why this score

While multiple sources confirm a US soldier was killed in Iraq during a drone-related incident, there is no corroboration across the provided wire services for the claim of a nine-day sustained bombing campaign against Iranian territory. The Al Jazeera report appears to conflate localized retaliatory strikes in Iraq with a broader, unverified regional war against Iran.
