美国国防部在周末更新了军事伤亡数据库，将伊朗战争中的部分伤亡重新分类为"海外行动"，试图将4名被伊朗部队击杀的美国士兵从伊朗战争伤亡名单中分离出来1。这一做法立即引起退役军人和国会议员的强烈反对。退役海军少将迈克尔·E·史密斯表示，"声称他们不是因战争而丧生——哦，只是海外行动——这是荒谬的"1。民主党参议员柯尔斯滕·吉利布兰德指出，"美国人民应该了解特朗普伊朗战争的人员代价真相"1。
国防部此次更新中添加了140多名伤兵，并引入了"海外行动"这一新类别，其开始日期被设定为7月7日1。被重新分类的4名美军士兵分别为：一级中尉泰勒·詹姆斯·菲汉、一等兵伊莎贝拉·冈萨雷斯、中士安吉尔·S·拉姆珀萨德和中士迈克尔·埃曼纽尔·斯温顿1。共和党众议员托马斯·马西批评称，国防部"装作存在两场由短暂停火分隔的伊朗战争"1。退役军人和国会议员认为，这一举措违反了《1973年战争权力法》，是对阵亡士兵及其家属的不尊重1。
The U.S. Department of Defense updated its military casualty database over the weekend, introducing a new "overseas contingency operations" category and reclassifying four American service members killed by Iranian forces, effectively separating them from official Iran war casualty figures 1. The move prompted sharp pushback from military veterans and members of Congress, who characterized it as disrespectful to fallen soldiers and their families and potentially at odds with the 1973 War Powers Act 1.
The defense department added more than 140 wounded personnel to its records while establishing the new classification category with a start date of July 7, intended to distinguish casualties from the early phase of U.S.-Iran hostilities 1. The four soldiers reassigned to the new category are 1st Lt Tyler James Feehan, Pvt Isabella Gonzales, Sgt Angel S. Rampersad, and Sgt Michael Emmanuel Swinton 1. Retired Navy Rear Admiral Michael E. Smith called the reclassification absurd, stating that "claiming they didn't die from war—oh, just overseas contingency operations—is ridiculous" 1. Republican Representative Thomas Massie criticized the department for "pretending there are two Iran wars separated by a brief ceasefire," while Democratic Senator Kirsten Gillibrand argued that "the American people deserve to know the true human cost of Trump's Iran war" 1.
