President Joe Biden, accompanied by First Lady Jill Biden, participated in the military ceremony at a Delaware air base to receive the remains of three US soldiers who lost their lives in a drone attack in Jordan, attributed to an Iran-backed militia. The solemn event, referred to as a "dignified transfer," took place at Dover Air Force Base. The President and First Lady were greeted by a grey C-5 military transport plane that transported the bodies in flag-draped "transfer cases".
