Gen. Ray Odierno, a former four-star Army general who commanded US troops during the Iraq War, died Friday of cancer, according to Army spokesman Lt. Col. Terence M. Kelly
Kelly provided a statement from the Odierno family confirming Odierno's death.
"It is with deep regret that I can confirm the death of General Raymond T. Odierno on October 8th, 2021," the Odierno family statement reads. "The general died after a brave battle with cancer; his death was not related to COVID. There are no other details to share at this time."

Hours after ousted Venezuelan leader Nicolás Maduro was formally charged with narcoterrorism and other offenses in New York, the Justice Department used the indictment at a federal courthouse 1,300 miles away in its effort to defend President Donald Trump’s ability to use a wartime authority to speed up some deportations.
