An Iran-backed militia group has said it was responsible for a drone strike at a US military base in Jordan that killed three American troops.
At least 34 other service members were injured in the attack at the base, known as Tower 22. The White House blamed Iran and vowed a "very consequential response".

A man and his elderly mother were killed in a cross-border missile attack on a northern Israel community Sunday as fighting with the Hezbollah terror group appeared to intensify, undercutting US hopes for a diplomatic push to restore calm.
The anti-tank missile strike on the town of Kfar Yuval occurred hours after three gunmen from Lebanon were killed in a firefight with troops after infiltrating into northern Israel under the cover of predawn fog, and as Hezbollah rocket fire and Israel Defense Forces airstrikes echoed across the border region, sending the region spiraling closer to war.
Barak Ayalon, 45, and his mother Miri Ayalon, 76, were killed when an anti-tank missile slammed into their home in the border community, in an attack claimed by the Hezbollah terror group.
Barak Ayalon was declared dead at the scene by Magen David Adom medics, while Miri Ayalon died a short time later after being rushed to a hospital in serious condition.
The group said it launched “a number of explosive attack drones” at the military headquarters in Safed, the first time it has targeted the site.
Tawil was a commander of Hezbollah’s elite Radwan forces and the most senior Hezbollah officer killed since 7 October, a senior source in Lebanon said, adding he played a leading role in directing its operations in the south. More than 130 Hezbollah fighters including Radwan members have been killed since October.
Tawil and another Hezbollah fighter were killed when the car they were in was struck in the village of Majdal Selm, some six kilometres from the border, three sources in Lebanon said.
Israel has killed top Hezbollah commander Wissam al-Tawil in an air strike in southern Lebanon, the Lebanese armed group says.
Hezbollah on Monday announced the killing of one of its commanders for the first time in three months of cross-border clashes with Israeli forces.
The shadows stretching across the Middle East and beyond, since the start of the Israel-Gaza war, are now longer and darker with the killing of senior Hamas leader Saleh al-Arouri in Lebanon.
Arouri, a deputy political leader of Hamas, was killed in a drone strike in southern Beirut. He was a key figure in the Izzedine al-Qassam Brigades, Hamas's armed wing, and a close ally of Ismail Haniyeh, the Hamas leader. He had been in Lebanon acting as a connection between his group and Hezbollah.
Even before the 7 October war erupted, Lebanese Hezbollah leader Hassan Nasrallah had warned that any targeted attack on Lebanese soil would trigger a "powerful response".
But Hezbollah and its Iranian allies know the shape of their reply now, in the burning heat of hostilities, could change the shape of this war - and Hezbollah's fortunes.
