Story by Times Now Digital • 2h • 3 min read

Iran’s top security official Ali Larijani said that several American soldiers have been captured since the start of hostilities between Iran and the United States on February 28. He did not give details about how many soldiers were captured.

Larijani said the information about captured troops had been reported to him. In a message posted on X, he wrote, “It has been reported to me that several American soldiers have been taken prisoner. But the Americans claim that they have been killed in action. Despite their futile efforts, the truth is not something they can hide for too long.”

However, the United States military denied the claim, saying that no American troops have been taken prisoner and the statement is false, Reuters reported.

The statement came as tensions between Iran and the United States continued to escalate following a week of military confrontations.
