A drone has struck a tent of sleeping troops in Jordan, killing US troops in the Middle East for the first time since the war in Gaza began. The US has blamed Iran-backed militant groups, but is yet to identify who specifically they believe is responsible.

Three American troops have been killed and 34 injured in a drone attack in Jordan.

Those killed in the attack were sleeping in a tent at a place called Tower 22 in northeast Jordan, near the Syria border.

US President Joe Biden said the attack was carried out by “radical Iran-backed militant groups” in Syria and Iraq.

    They learned that from us, definitely, but forgot the lesson we learned on optics.

    Can’t just call everything an enemy base without like at least a hazy picture of a dude with two sticks and a circuit board in the building first.
