"Deadly Drone Attack on U.S. Troops Sparks Calls for Action Against Iran"

TL;DR
Three American service members were killed and over 30 were injured in a drone attack on a U.S. base in Jordan, with President Biden attributing the attack to "radical Iran-backed militant groups." The strike, which occurred at an outpost near the Syrian border, marks the deadliest attack on U.S. troops since the withdrawal from Afghanistan. Tensions between the U.S. and Iran's proxies have escalated, prompting calls for retaliation from congressional Republicans, while the Jordanian government condemned the attack and affirmed its commitment to counterterrorism efforts.
