Iran’s role in US base attack uncertain: American official

Tehran, IRNA - An American official said on Sunday night that it remained uncertain the Iranian military was involved in an attack on a US base on the Jordan-Syria border that reportedly killed and wounded a number of soldiers.

According to the Al Jazeera news network, the unnamed American official was reacting to the report that a drone attack that hit a US military base on the Jordanian border with Syria was potentially launched by Iran.  

“Iran's support for the group allegedly behind the attack on the base does not mean that it was carried out by Iran”, the official said.

CNN reported on Sunday night that the drone attack on a small American base in Jordan left three US army personnel dead and 25 others wounded.

The report also said, that the deadly attack on Tower 22 in Jordan showed a significant escalation in the already unstable situation in the Middle East.

The attack comes amid growing anti-American sentiment in the region over Washington’s all-out support for the Israeli regime’s genocidal war on the Gaza Strip. 

Israel keeps pounding Gaza from land, air and sea ever since October 7, the day when the Palestinian resistance movement, Hamas launched a surprise operation dubbed "Al-Aqsa Storm" against the Zionist regime over its decades of atrocities across occupied Palestine.

However, since the start of Israel’s war, each resistance groups in the region has performed its duty to support the oppressed Palestinians in one or the other way.

The resistance groups have, time and again, warned the West, the US in particular, for their support for the Zionist regime’s bombing and shelling campaign in Gaza that has so far claimed nearly 26,500 lives, mostly women and children.
