One U.S. service member and four members of his family are among the eight American citizens injured Tuesday in Brussels attacks, according to reports.
U.S European Command confirmed the information to Military Times, but declined to give any specifics on their condition due to privacy concerns.
“To confirm the safety of all U.S. military personnel and families, to include those on pre-approved leaves and other official travel, we continue to seek 100 percent accountability from all subordinate commands and units,” said Navy Lt. Cheryl Collins, a U.S. European Command spokeswoman.
The comment walks back comments made earlier on Tuesday that all U.S. military personnel in the area were safe and encountered for.
Three U.S. Mormon missionaries were also wounded in the attack, NBC reported.
