On July 17, two U.S. service members in Jordan were killed in action as U.S. Central Command (CENTCOM) and partner forces defended against Iranian ballistic missile and drone attacks. Additionally, one service member is currently missing in action.

Four American service members were medically evacuated to Jordanian hospitals. They have since been discharged. Other personnel who were evaluated for minor injuries have returned to duty.

Out of respect for the families, CENTCOM will withhold additional information, including the identities of the fallen warriors, until 24 hours after the next of kin have been notified.

Fox News reported Iran has since announced it has suspended its obligations to the recently signed MOU with the United States:

Iran’s Deputy Foreign Minister Kazem Gharibabadi said Saturday that Tehran has “suspended” its commitments in the US-Iran Memorandum of Understanding that was reached last month, according to a report from Turkey’s Anadolu Agency.

The declaration comes after U.S. Central Command’s latest wave of airstrikes against Iran, which unfolded Friday night.

“The U.S. has violated and suspended all its commitments within the framework of the Islamabad MoU,” Gharibabadi reportedly told Iran’s Fars news agency.

“We have also suspended our commitments, we are not implementing them, and we are busy defending the country,” he added.
