Two U.S. service members died and another remains missing after Iran launched a missile and drone attack on Jordan.

Following an Iranian ballistic missile and drone strike on Jordan, two U.S. service members were killed and a third is still missing. The U.S. Central Command evacuated four personnel to Jordanian hospitals before discharging them, while lightly injured troops returned to duty. Jordan intercepted ten Iranian missiles that entered its airspace, reporting no damage. The attack occurs amid the U.S. military’s seventh consecutive night of strikes on Iran after a ceasefire was deemed over by President Trump.
