Iran denies any role in drone attack on US base in Jordan – MFA

Nasser Kanaani, the spokesman for Iran’s Foreign Ministry, denied any involvement by Iran in the assault on a US military base in Jordan on Sunday, Trend reports.

Kanaani stated this today in response to the allegations against Iran regarding the UAV strike on US troops in Jordan.

The spokesman stated that Iran does not favor the escalation of conflicts in the Middle East. He also said that Iran does not meddle with the choices of resistance groups that support Palestine. This is because the resistance groups in the region do not follow Iran’s orders.

He further said that the repeated false claims against Iran are driven by specific political motives to alter the realities in the region.

A UAV attacked the US military base in Jordan near the Syrian border last night. The attack killed three American soldiers and wounded 34 others.
