Two US troops killed by Iran are identified as Trump moves closer to all-out WAR in blistering revenge

Two US soldiers killed by Iranian strikes in Jordan have been identified on Monday as Donald Trump prepares to expand his war against the regime. 

1st Lt. Tyler James Feehan, 25, and Pvt. Isabella Gonzales, 19, were killed following an attack on an American air base in Jordan on Friday, the Department of War announced. 

Gonzales, a Texas native, died Friday; Feehan, of Hawaii, died Saturday. They are the first American troops killed in the war with Iran since March, bringing the overall US death toll to 17.

A third US soldier was killed in northern Iraq on Saturday during the controlled detonation of unexploded Iranian drone. The Pentagon has not released the soldier’s identity. 

Central Command is also working to establish whether remains found close to the devastated Jordan base belong to a fourth service member who had been listed as missing. 

As American deaths continue climbing, Trump’s confrontation with Iran is spiraling toward a far wider conflict with the US unleashing its ninth consecutive wave of strikes.

Trump, speaking at Joint Base Andrews on Sunday night after attending the World Cup final, said the US had ‘hit them very hard again’ in a fresh barrage launched to avenge the fallen soldiers. 

Iran hit back on Monday morning, launching explosive-laden suicide drones at critical infrastructure in Kuwait, according to the Kuwaiti military.
