US military to seize soldiers' phones to block Iran info
The U.S. Central Command is studying the possibility of imposing restrictions on the use of mobile phones by its troops in the Middle East to prevent the leakage of information that could help Iran target American military bases. Commander of the force, Admiral Brad Cooper, indicated that posting videos via phones could lead Iran to identify locations and target American forces more quickly, thus risking the lives of soldiers and civilians. He also pointed out that Iran benefits from monitoring reports and images published online, which are captured by soldiers' phones. This allows Iran to assess the outcomes of its strikes immediately, increasing the danger of its military operations against U.S. bases. Orders to confiscate the phones of some soldiers in the region are likely to be issued soon, especially in Jordan, where Iranian attacks are frequent. The statements highlight a tension between maintaining soldiers' ability for personal communication and the need to protect sensitive military information. There is concern that leaking videos and images could endanger lives and undermine the security of U.S. military operations in the region.
