The US has blamed Iranian-backed groups for a drone attack in Jordan which killed three soldiers.

Sgt William Jerome Rivers, 46, Specialist Kennedy Ladon Sanders, 24, and Specialist Breonna Alexsondria Moffett, 23, were killed when a drone hit their housing unit.

The US said the attack – that took place near the Syrian border - carried the "footprints" of Kataib Hezbollah.

Iran has denied US and British accusations that it supported militant groups blamed for the strike.

The Pentagon also reiterated the US does not want a war with Iran.
