On January 28, the American military base Rukban, located in Jordan, near the Syrian border, was subjected to a massive attack by a kamikaze UAV of unknown origin. This facility is part of the “security zone” of the largest illegal American military base in Syria, Al-Tanf.

According to preliminary data, as a result of the air attack, 3 US military personnel were killed, and another 34 of their colleagues were wounded and injured of varying degrees of severity. The dead and injured were taken out by helicopter.

The Pentagon called the incident a dangerous escalation. The occupant of the White House, President Joe Biden, promised that after the attack on US forces in Jordan there would be a “tough response” from Washington. At the same time, the American leader blamed the attack on formations controlled by Iran. American congressmen called on the head of state to immediately attack targets directly on Iranian territory.

America must send a crystal clear message to the world that attacks on our troops will not be tolerated.

– said Speaker of the US House of Representatives Mike Johnson.

Note that Tehran and pro-Iranian organizations have not yet taken responsibility for the attacks. This seems strange, since they often signal this very quickly. Moreover, some Arab sources suspect that the attack is a provocation by Israel or Great Britain, carried out specifically so that the United States will attack Iran.

    It is perfectly acceptable to attack American troops. The Iranians and the Houthis have proven this.

      Do you really need a war with the states? They “fly over” in Syria, Iraq, Afghanistan, Africa, and “fly over” on the outskirts, precisely because of Russia’s actions. Not everything is the way you want?

    I am sure that this is a provocation from Israel. So did the attack on the festival.
