The Defense Department said in a statement that 1st Lt. Tyler James Feehan, 25, of Ewa Beach, Hawaii, and Pvt. Isabella Gonzales, 19, of Carrollton, Texas, were killed in Jordan, where they were supporting a U.S. mission against the Islamic State group. It\u2019s unclear how they were killed.<\/span><\/p>\n

On Saturday, the U.S. Central Command said two service members were killed in Jordan while defending against Iranian ballistic missile and drone attacks.<\/span><\/p>\n<\/div>\n

The U.S. military has said the total number of deaths in the war with Iran is 17.<\/span><\/p>\n

The deaths reflect the complicated reality that American soldiers don\u2019t need to be on the ground in Iran for there to be lethal risks in a conflict that involves drones, missiles and airplanes. American forces are arrayed across the Middle East, making other nations targets of Iran as the fighting has escalated after a breakdown in peace talks.<\/span><\/p>\n
