A Defense Department inspector general report gave the first official account of US losses from Feb. 28 to June 30, saying dozens of aircraft were lost and hundreds of structures used by US forces were damaged or destroyed by Iranian attacks, and confirmed strategic munitions shortfalls.

Why it matters

The findings contrast with months of statements that most Iranian strikes on US bases were intercepted.
