Army Private Isabella Gonzales.

The Department of War announcement two more members of the U.S. military who were killed in Jordan by Iranian drone and missile strikes. Another service member was killed on Saturday in Iraq during what the military described as the "controlled detonation" of an Iranian drone that had been shot down. The three fatalities bring the U.S. death toll to 17 since the war began in late February. 

The two fatalities occurred Friday when Iran attacked Muwaffaq Salti Air Base in Jordan. Officials from the Pentagon say Army Private Isabella Gonzales, 19, of Carrollton, Texas, was killed in the attack. Gonzales had been assigned to the 1st Battalion, 57th Air Defense Artillery Regiment, 52nd Air Defense Artillery Brigade, 10th Army Air Missile Defense Command, Ansbach, Germany.

Also killed in action was 25-year-old 1st Lt. Tyler James Feehan of Ewa Beach, Hawaii. Feehan died on Saturday and had been assigned to 2nd Battalion, 55th Air Defense Artillery Regiment, 32nd Army Air Missile Defense Command, Fort Bragg, North Carolina.

The deaths of Gonzales and Feehan were the 15th and 16th U.S. fatalities to occur in the war with Iran. The service member killed in Iraq on Saturday is the 17th death. "Godspeed, heroes," Secretary of War Pete Hegseth said in a post on X. "Their sacrifice only stiffens our resolve."

Congresswoman Mayra Flores of Texas expressed her condolences in a post on X Monday, saying, "Our hearts are heavy for 19-year-old Pvt. Isabella Gonzales of Carrollton, TX, who made the ultimate sacrifice serving our nation. Her courage and devotion will never be forgotten. Prayers for her family. Rest in peace, Isabella. 🇺🇸"

The Department of War acknowledged the death of the service member in Iraq, but said it would not identify the individual until family members were notified.
