The United States has responded to the killing of three American soldiers with a retaliatory attack, and more may follow. The United States is not yet interested in a war with Iran: it will likely continue to target targets in Syria and Iraq in the future.
Since the United States attacked several targets in Syria and Iraq with missiles on Friday evening, the risk of an expansion of the conflict in the Middle East has never been greater. US President Biden authorized the strikes in response to a drone attack on a US base in Jordan late Sunday in which three US service members were killed and more than 40 injured.
