The Air Force announced the deaths of two service members who died in the Middle East this month. Both of their deaths were classified as “nonhostile.”

The service did not provide details about what happened, who died, and how, but an Air Force spokesperson confirmed to the Washington Examiner on Thursday that one of the deaths “remains under investigation,” and the other was “a non-hostile death as a result of an illness.”
