US attacks on Iran leave 18 killed, 142 wounded, health official says

The Pentagon has restricted access to classified military documents on its internal computer system, according to The Washington Post. This move comes days after the newspaper reported that senior US commanders had raised concerns about sustaining large-scale military operations against Iran. The documents associated with the Secretary of Defense Orders Book (SDOB) were removed from an internal web portal on the Secret Internet Protocol Router Network (SIPRNet), according to three people familiar with the matter.

The SDOB contains information on the location and availability of US warships, military units, weapons systems, and other resources, and allows senior military leaders to formally register reservations about orders while continuing to carry them out through a process known as non-concurring.
