I think they are lying about the casualty counts as well. Pete looks extra scared in his most recent broadcasts, he's masking like a mfer. The bottle is his only safety.
I heard 200 dead the first day.
The US 5ft fleet base (second largest in the region) was hit multiple times in the first few HOURS of the war. there was a billion dollar radar system there and a large wide building that I saw with a large hole in its roof. Since then it has been hit repeatedly and from what I heard, is basically gone. There were like 9000 troops stationed there.
I find it very unlikely the US could keep a lid on 200 deaths and saying it’s six. Not for more than a week or so. People’s families are going to wonder where their loved ones are. Hospital workers, morgue workers, life insurance companies, flight crews, people are going to talk, and share pictures.
