Iranian strike kills 2 US troops in Jordan, 3rd is MIA, as Tehran vows ‘unforgettable lessons’

Two US service members were killed and one was missing after an Iranian ballistic missile attack in Jordan on Friday, according to US Central Command. Four others were wounded, treated, and discharged. This incident follows intensified tit-for-tat attacks between the US and Iran since an interim ceasefire deal collapsed a month ago. Iran has suspended its commitments to the memorandum of understanding with Washington, with Deputy Foreign Minister Kazem Gharibabadi stating, "We have also suspended our commitments; we are not implementing them, and we are busy defending the country." A message attributed to Iran's supreme leader, Mojtaba Khamenei, vowed "unforgettable lessons" for the US. The conflict, which began in late February, has seen US strikes on Iranian infrastructure and Iranian responses targeting US bases and Gulf allies, including Kuwait and Bahrain. Israel is preparing for potential Iranian attacks, though it believes Iran is not interested in directly attacking the Jewish state due to anticipated severe retaliation.
