REPORT: CENTCOM Commander Adm. Brad Cooper has warned U.S. troops that cellphone videos and social media posts are giving Iran real-time battle damage assessments that could help plan follow-on attacks against American forces. According to Reuters, some troops in Jordan have been told their phones may soon be confiscated as the military considers stricter operational security measures. Cooper warned that images and videos shared by service members can reveal whether Iranian missiles hit their targets, effectively providing Tehran with valuable intelligence "free of charge."
