US Soldier Killed in Iraq During Drone Wreckage Detonation; Remains Recovered in Jordan
A U.S. service member died during a controlled detonation of unexploded ordnance from a downed Iranian attack drone in northern Iraq. A second soldier was wounded and is receiving medical treatment. Separately in Jordan, U.S. forces searching for a missing service member after an Iranian strike discovered unidentified remains. Officials say forensic exams are under way to confirm their identity. Earlier that week, two U.S. troops were killed in a separate Iranian attack on a base in Jordan, and four others were evacuated to local hospitals and later discharged.
