Sept 18 (Reuters) - More US troops have died during the war with Iran than the Pentagon has publicly disclosed, the Washington Post reported on Friday, citing six US officials familiar with the Defense Department’s internal casualty accounting data.

There have been at least 22 military fatalities, four more than the data available on the Pentagon’s public database, the newspaper cited five of the officials as saying.
