WASHINGTON, March 10 (Reuters) - As many as 150 U.S. troops have been wounded so far in the war with Iran, two people familiar with the matter told Reuters on Tuesday.

The figure has not been previously reported and is far higher than the Pentagon's publicly disclosed figure of 8 seriously wounded U.S. forces.

The Pentagon did not immediately comment.
