A drone has struck a tent of sleeping troops in Jordan, killing US troops in the Middle East for the first time since the war in Gaza began. The US has blamed Iran-backed militant groups, but is yet to identify who specifically they believe is responsible.

Three American troops have been killed and 34 injured in a drone attack in Jordan.

Those killed in the attack were sleeping in a tent at a place called Tower 22 in northeast Jordan, near the Syria border.

US President Joe Biden said the attack was carried out by "radical Iran-backed militant groups" in Syria and Iraq.
