A series of Republican lawmakers are urging President Biden to take action against Iran after three US service members were killed in a drone attack in Jordan. The strike, which occurred near the Syrian and Iraqi border, was carried out by an Iranian-backed militant group. GOP lawmakers criticized the Biden administration for its past responses to Iranian-linked attacks and called for a stronger approach moving forward. Concerns have been raised about the escalating attacks on US bases and troops in the Middle East, with some fearing a wider conflict in the region. President Biden has vowed to respond to the attack, but has not provided specific details. The criticism extended to the 2024 campaign trail, with Republican presidential candidate Nikki Haley and former President Trump both blaming Biden’s perceived weakness on Iran. The White House has been contacted for comment.
