In the statement made by the US Central Command, it was stated that at least 34 people were injured in the attack and the number of injured is expected to increase. Eight workers were evacuated from Jordan to receive further medical attention.
US President Joe Biden accused Iran of supporting the group for the attack, which was the first attack on the US military since the war between Israel and Hamas began in October.

"While we are still gathering the facts of this attack, we know that it was carried out by Iranian-backed military groups operating in Syria and Iraq. We will immediately hold those responsible accountable." "The path we chose," Biden said in his statement.

However, Iran's mission to the United Nations said in a statement on Monday that Tehran was not involved in the attack. The Iran-backed military group, a group under the umbrella of the Iraqi Islamic Resistance Movement, claimed responsibility for the attack on the Jordan-Syria border, the main Jordanian hub northeast of the country's border with Syria and Iraq.

Tower 22 Attack on Mission
The base is not known to provide base and logistical support for 350 U.S. Army and Air Force soldiers. Tower 22 is near the Al-Tanf garrison on the Syrian border and is home to a small number of American soldiers. Tanf played a key role in the fight against the Islamic State and was central to the US strategy to stop Iran's military build-up in eastern Syria.
