President Donald Trump said on Saturday (December 13, 2025) that “we will retaliate” after two U.S. service members and one American civilian were killed in a Syria attack that the U.S. blames on the Islamic State group.
“This is an ISIS attack,” the American president told reporters at the White House before departing for the Army-Navy football game in Baltimore.
He paid condolences to the three Americans killed and said three others who were wounded “seem to be doing pretty well.”
