#BREAKING: @JenGriffinFNC says the death toll of U.S. soldiers has increased to TWELVE -- "11 Marines and one Navy medic. This is the largest death toll for U.S. servicemembers in this kind of attack in over a decade" with the last U.S. servicemember death being February 2020 pic.twitter.com/28f58py3km

Today is the deadliest day for American servicemembers in Afghanistan in more than a decade, and the death toll keeps climbing.

Pray for their families and the people they left behind who love them. Tragic beyond words. https://t.co/hB9iLl6oPq
