Iran Announces Bounty for Killing or Capturing US Soldiers, Doubles Reward for Women
Iran's military announced a bounty of $30,000 for killing or capturing US soldiers, doubling the reward if carried out by women. Army chief Amir Hatami said the plan followed numerous requests for participation but did not specify locations or timing. There has been no known deployment of US ground forces in Iran except a rescue mission in April. The announcement comes amid ongoing tensions and sporadic exchanges between Iran and the US since February, including a ceasefire and failed peace talks.
