At least 50 U.S. service members have been diagnosed with traumatic brain injuries (TBIs) following Iran’s missile strike on an Iraqi airbase as retaliation for the killing of Gen. Qassem Soleimani, according to the the latest figures from the Pentagon.

“As of today, 50 U.S. service members have been diagnosed with TBI,” Defense Department spokesman Lt. Col. Thomas Campbell said in the statement.

Fifteen of the 16 newly-disclosed cases have been treated in Iraq and returned to duty, as have 31 of the service members diagnosed with TBI overall, the Pentagon said. Eighteen others have been transported to Germany for additional evaluation and treatment, one more than previously reported, according to the statement.
