U.S. forces said Sunday they recovered the remains of an unidentified service member near the air base in Jordan that was struck in an Iranian attack. The discovery comes after two American troops were previously reported killed in the incident.
The latest disclosure increases the number of U.S. service members killed in the attack, according to the information released so far. Officials did not provide further identification details in the trimmed report, indicating the remains have not yet been publicly linked to a named individual.
The development adds to the seriousness of the strike on the Jordan facility, where U.S. personnel were stationed. It also underscores the continued risks facing American forces in the region amid tensions involving Iran.
With only limited details available, it remains unclear what additional information the military may release about the unidentified service member or the circumstances surrounding the recovery near the base.
