The Pentagon has confirmed that all six crew members aboard a U.S. military refueling plane that crashed in Iraq have died. Among the deceased are service members from Alabama and Ohio, including a father of three from Alabama and graduates from multiple Ohio schools. The plane, a KC-135, went down while supporting operations amid rising tensions in the region, and it has been suggested that the aircraft may have been targeted by an Iranian-backed group. Flags have been ordered to be flown at half-staff in Ohio as the families mourn their losses, highlighting the profound impact of this tragedy.
