The United States will not tolerate attacks on its military personnel in the Middle East and will respond to these actions, Pentagon chief Lloyd Austin said.
"Iran-backed forces are responsible for ongoing attacks on U.S. military personnel, and we will take the necessary steps to protect the U.S. and our forces at the appropriate time and in an appropriate manner," he said.
Earlier on Sunday, US Central Command said three American soldiers were killed in a drone attack on a military base in northeast Jordan. Another 25 people were injured.
