US President Joe Biden
The US has vowed to respond to a drone attack on a base in Jordan that killed three American troops, with President Joe Biden blaming the attack on Iran-backed militants.
It's reported that American troops were still in their sleeping quarters when the drone struck with little to no warning.
The drone arrived at the same time as a returning US drone - and consquently, elements of the defence system had been turned off.
Iran denies that it was behind the attack, calling the accusations baseless and says it was not involved in the decision making of resistance groups.
An umbrella group for Iran-backed militia calling itself the Islamic Resistance in Iraq yesterday said it was responsible for the attack.
It is the first time US soldiers have been killed by strikes in the region after Hamas's October 7 attack on Israel sparked the war in Gaza.
