Trump to attend dignified transfer of US soldiers killed in Iran strikes

The transfer will include the remains of four service members killed in the Iran conflict, and Trump will attend for the third time, officials said.

  • President Donald Trump travels to Dover Air Force Base in Delaware today for the dignified transfer of four U.S. service members killed in Iranian attacks in the Middle East.
  • Three service members died Friday when an Iranian missile struck their barracks at Muwaffaq Salti Air Base in Jordan; Sergeant Michael Emmanuel Swinton, 30, died Sunday in Erbil, Iraq during a controlled detonation of an attack drone.
  • The conflict has claimed 18 U.S. service members and injured more than 450 troops, costing taxpayers at least $37.5 billion so far; four in five Americans expect the war with Iran to continue for an extended period.
  • Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth requested $67 billion in supplemental funding yesterday during a contentious hearing with senators, warning that service members' pay could face shortfalls without additional capital to replenish munitions.
  • While 37% of respondents approve of U.S. military strikes against Iran, lawmakers from both parties expressed frustration regarding the war's direction, citing rising gasoline prices linked to the recent escalation in fighting.
