President Joe Biden recognized the three U.S. service members killed in a drone attack in Jordan while speaking at the National Prayer Breakfast. Their remains were returned to Dover Air Force Base in Delaware, where Biden, accompanied by First Lady Jill Biden, attended the dignified transfer. The drone, made in Iran and used by Iran-backed militants, led to the first American deaths under fire in a proxy conflict with Iranian-backed militias since the October 7 Hamas attack on Israel. The ceremony precedes U.S. retaliatory strikes in response to the attack.
