On 28January 2024, an attack drone, launched by the Islamic Resistance in Iraq—an Iranian-backed Shia militia group—struck Tower22, a U.S. military outpost in Rukban, northeast Jordan. The explosion resulted in the deaths of three U.S. soldiers and injuries to 47 others.[3]
The incident marked the first time U.S. troops were killed by enemy fire since the start of the Israel–Hamas war. President Joe Biden condemned the attack as "despicable" and pledged retaliation at a suitable time.[4] The U.S. began retaliatory strikes on 2 February, hitting sites in Iraq and Syria.[5] Iran denied any involvement in the attack.[6]
