According to CBS News, an American official who did not want to reveal his identity said: “Iran’s support for the militias that attacked the American base does not mean an attack by Iran.” .”
US military officials said on Sunday night Tehran time that three soldiers of this country were killed and at least 25 military personnel were injured in a night drone attack on an American base in Jordan.
CENTCOM (US Central Command) confirmed in a statement on Sunday night that three soldiers were killed and 25 personnel were wounded in a drone attack on a base in northeastern Jordan.
CNN wrote that it is not clear why the air defense failed to intercept the drone. US President Joe Biden tried to attribute the attack on American forces to Iran-backed groups, but admitted that Washington is still gathering information about the attack.
