NATO Secretary General Jens Stoltenberg blamed Iran for the attack on the US base in the al-Tanf area. “Iran continues to destabilize the region, which also includes supporting terrorists who continue to attack our ships in the Red Sea,” he said.

Earlier, the United States Central Command (CENTCOM) reported that three soldiers were killed and 25 more were injured as a result of a drone attack on an American military base in Jordan. The Wall Street Journal wrote that the US military did not repulse a drone strike on its base inJordan because it confused the attacking drone with its own.
