On Tower 22 in Jordan on 28-Jan-24

Late on Sunday, 28 January 2024, a drone struck a remote and lightly defended American outpost in Jordan—known as Tower 22—on the border with Syria, killing three American troops and injuring dozens of others. America blamed Iran-backed militants for the attack. No American soldier has died in an enemy air strike since 15 April 15 1953 during the Korean war.
