In a tragic turn of events, a lone Islamic State member killed two US service members and one American civilian in central Syria, marking the first American casualties in the country since Assads fall. The attack near Palmyra also injured three others. Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth vowed relentless pursuit of the perpetrator, while Syrian state media reported the attackers death.
