President Joe Biden is set to perform the solemn duty of attending the dignified transfer ceremony at Dover Air Force Base in Delaware on Friday for the return of three U.S. troops killed in a drone attack in Jordan by Iranian proxies. The attack, which has been attributed to Iranian-backed militants, prompted Biden to console the grieving families, including Shawn Sanders and Oneida Oliver-Sanders. The Pentagon, with Secretary of Defense and the Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff also attending, is preparing a response to the attack, with the U.S. ramping up its response to groups in the Middle East and bolstering defenses at the base in Jordan. Biden recognized the service members during the National Prayer Breakfast on Capitol Hill and is expected to meet with the families of the fallen soldiers. The White House is considering targeting Iran-backed militias operating in Syria and Iraq as part of the retaliation.
