Two US Soldiers Killed in Jordan as Eighth Night of Strikes Hits Iran

First hostile fire deaths since the April truce shatter the pause and trigger a week of continuous American retaliation.

The casualties mark the first deaths from hostile fire since the truce established in early April, ending a period where direct combat fatalities had ceased even as regional tensions persisted [5]. Washington responded immediately with a new wave of airstrikes against Iranian targets that same day, converting the lethal breach into an open cycle of retaliation that has now extended through eight consecutive nights of military operations [3].
