President Trump Vows Iran Will 'Pay Many Times over' After US Service Members Killed
Trump ordered fresh strikes as U.S. forces seek to degrade Iranian capabilities after three American service members were killed, officials said.
- On Monday, President Donald Trump ordered expanded U.S. strikes against Iranian infrastructure following the deaths of three service members in Jordan. CENTCOM reported forces began a tenth consecutive night of operations at the Commander in Chief's direction.
- Iranian ballistic missiles struck Muwaffaq Salti Air Base in Jordan, killing 19-year-old Private Isabella Gonzales and 25-year-old First Lieutenant Tyler James Feehan. The attack transformed Jordan into an exposed frontline state, with 17 American troops killed since the war began.
- Trump vowed that Iran "will pay for that killing many times over," as gas prices climbed to $4 a gallon and Brent crude oil exceeded $86 per barrel. The latest strikes aim to degrade Iranian capabilities used to attack shipping in the Strait of Hormuz.
- President Trump will travel to Dover Air Force Base on Tuesday for the dignified transfer of the fallen service members. Mediators have floated a 10-day ceasefire idea to negotiate lifting restrictions on the Strait of Hormuz.
- Secretary of State Marco Rubio stated the U.S. remains open to diplomacy, provided Iran agrees to a deal it will live by. However, Iran's president declared the country is in a "full-scale war," as the State Department urged Americans in the region to exercise increased caution.
