“Dangerous moment in the Middle East’: Austin announces retaliatory strikes – Iran threatens consequences. Two American soldiers and a soldier were killed and dozens more injured by pro-Iranian militias in a drone attack on a US military base in Jordan on Sunday.
The group “Islamic Resistance in Iraq” had previously claimed responsibility for the drone attack. Since the beginning of the Gaza war between Israel and Hamas, there have been almost 170 attacks on US military bases in Iraq and Syria.
