Trump vows Iran will 'pay' for killing US soldiers

Trump vows Iran will'pay' for killing US soldiers US President Donald Trump says Iran will "pay" for killing United States soldiers after multiple service members were killed in action over the weekend. "Every time Iran kills an American Soldier they will pay for that killing many times over!" Trump said on Monday on social media. "This directive has been passed on to Secretary of War, Pete Hegseth, Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff, Daniel Caine, and every Leader in the Military. The US military also identified two soldiers who were killed in Jordan on Friday while defending against Iranian ballistic missile and drone attacks. Seventeen US troops have been killed since the start of the five-month US-Israel war on Iran. The renewed exchanges of fire, now in their second week, have seen the US target Iranian bridges and electrical facilities as the countries appear to inch closer to a return to full-scale war.
