U.S. prosecutors have charged two men in connection with a January drone strike carried out by Iran-backed militants in Jordan, which resulted in the deaths of three U.S. service members and injuries to approximately 40 others. The individuals charged include one Iranian national and one dual U.S.-Iranian citizen, who are accused of providing material support to Iran.
