Trump vows Iran will pay ‘many times over’ for deadly attack on US troops
President Donald Trump has said Iran would “pay” for killing US soldiers after multiple service members were killed over the weekend as part of the United States’ war against Iran.
The number of US troops killed in the war on Iran rose to 17 over the weekend, with the remains of an additional service member being examined. Two of the personnel were confirmed to have been killed when Iran attacked US personnel in Jordan.
“Every time Iran kills an American Soldier they will pay for that killing many times over,” Trump wrote on Truth Social on Monday.
“This directive has been passed on to Secretary of War, Pete Hegseth, Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff, Daniel Caine.”
The weekend was one of the deadliest ones for US troops since the war started in February. In March, six US troops were killed when an Iranian drone slammed into a US military facility in Port Shuaiba, Kuwait.
Roughly 430 US troops have been injured in the conflict so far.
