The claim that over 113 American soldiers have been killed and approximately 200 injured in Iranian attacks is mostly false because none of the reviewed sources report such high U.S. Military casualties, while the civilian and Israeli soldier death counts are also inconsistent with available data.

Verified March 1, 2026Key Evidence
No credible source reports over 113 American soldiers killed or about 200 injured in these attacks.
Iranian civilian deaths are reported in the hundreds, far exceeding 'only 2 civilians' claimed.
Israeli deaths vary by source but are generally higher than four soldiers, with some reports including civilians as well.
Most sources focus on Iranian casualties rather than U.S. Military losses.
The reporting
What the Evidence Shows
None of the ten sources reviewed provide evidence supporting the claim that over 113 American soldiers have been killed or about 200 injured due to Iranian attacks. Instead, the sources focus primarily on casualties within Iran and Israeli casualties.
Multiple sources report Israeli casualties but with numbers differing from the claim: BBC states two Israelis killed and 456 injured, while Wikipedia mentions 28 Israeli civilians and one off-duty soldier killed in Iranian strikes, which contradicts the claim of only four Israeli soldier deaths.bbc.combbc.comWhy has the US attacked Iran?

Civilian casualties reported in Iran are much higher than the claim of only two civilians dead; for example, (New York Times) cites at least 133 Iranian civilian deaths, and (NBC News) reports at least 201 people killed in Iran following U.S.-Israeli strikes.nytimes.comnytimes.comIran Says Supreme Leader Killed in U.S

The sources emphasize heavy Iranian civilian casualties and injuries (hundreds killed and injured), but do not confirm significant U.S. Military deaths or injuries as stated.
The claim appears to conflate or misrepresent casualty figures, possibly mixing Iranian civilian deaths with U.S. Military casualties, which is not supported by the evidence.
Overall, the data strongly contradicts the claim about American soldier deaths and injuries, while also showing that civilian and Israeli soldier deaths differ from those stated.
