"America's heart is heavy today. Last night three members of the American forces were killed in a drone attack near the Syrian border.
The details of the case are still unclear," says the American president, adding: "The three American soldiers we lost were patriots in the highest sense.
And their ultimate sacrifice will never be forgotten by our nation.
Together, we will maintain the sacred commitment we bear to their families.
We will strive to be worthy of their honor and heroism.
We will continue their commitment to fight terrorism.
And don't doubt - we will hold all those responsible accountable at the time and in the manner we choose."
According to the estimates, the attack on US forces was carried out by "radical militant groups supported by Iran, which were active in Syria and Iraq". As you may remember, the United States has attacked militia targets near the border of Syria and Iraq several times.
