At least 34 personnel were being evaluated for possible traumatic brain injury, a U.S. official told Reuters, speaking on condition of anonymity. A fourth official said the drone struck near the barracks, which, if confirmed, could explain the high number of casualties. Israel's subsequent assault on Gaza has killed over 26,000 Palestinians, according to the local health ministry. The U.S. military said the attack occurred at a base in northeastern Jordan, near the Syrian border. U.S. military activity in Jordan can be a sensitive issue, particularly at a time of heightened tensions of the Israel-Hamas conflict.
