The soldiers posted at Tower 22 US Army post in northeastern Jordan might have mistaken the enemy drone that killed three troop members for an American one. Officials suggested this possibility, citing primary investigation details, as one of their drones was scheduled to return to the facility.
These details emerged after the US conducted a primary probe to determine exactly why the nearly 350 troops at the base in Jordan were unable to stop the drone.
As the drone allegedly launched by an Iranian militant group, Islamic Resistance, was flying in at a low altitude, a US drone was also returning to the Army post. The soldiers thought that the drone was their own and hence there was no effort to shoot down the enemy drone that hit the outpost, officials told news agency Associated Press.
