Biden vows to respond after Iranian-backed drone strike kills 3 US troops in Jordan

 


President Joe Biden has vowed to respond after three American troops were killed and dozens more were injured in an overnight drone strike in northeast Jordan near the Syrian border. 

The President blamed Iran-backed militias for the first U.S. fatalities after months of strikes by such groups against American forces across the Middle East amid the Israel-Hamas war. Biden, who was traveling in South Carolina, asked for a moment of silence during an appearance at a Baptist church’s banquet hall. “We had a tough day last night in the Middle East.

Biden said in a written statement that the United States “will hold all those responsible to account at a time and in a manner (of) our choosing.” Defense Secretary Lloyd Austin said "we will take all necessary actions to defend the United States, our troops, and our interests.”
