The incident is the first time American troops have died due to direct fire during the recent hostilities in the Middle East. According to a White House Statement, “Last night, three U.S. service members were killed -- and many wounded -- during an unmanned aerial drone attack on our forces stationed in northeast Jordan near the Syria border. While we are still gathering the facts of this attack, we know it was carried out by radical Iran-backed militant groups operating in Syria and Iraq.” Another statement by CENTCOM said, “Three U.S. service members were killed and 25 injured from a one-way attack UAS [unmanned aircraft system] that impacted in a base in northeast Jordan, near the Syria border.” The attack reportedly occurred at Tower 22, an American outpost in Jordan near the U.S. base in Tanf in Syria. The incident is certain to increase pressure on the Biden Administration to take stronger action against Iran.
