What is this source?

As far is I can tell, “The War Zone” is part of The Drive (a defunct YouTube channel, now a website), owned by a company called Recurrent that also owns Popular Science and Bob Vila.

Maybe it’s credible, maybe not, but without context it’s super hard to tell.

This story is found in various credible places, including Reuters: Three US troops killed, up to 34 injured in Jordan drone strike linked to Iran

Oh to be clear I’m not doubting the story/headline, I’m just curious about the source because I’ve never heard of them before.

There are a lot of AI generated ripoffs out there, as well as straight propaganda. I like to at least understand where my news is coming from.

That’s fair. My first stop is generally mediabiasfactcheck.com but there’s no information about that site on there.

thedrive.com is owned by Recurrent Ventures and they have some fairly well-known and/or reputable brands who are on MBFC:

A highly detailed source and collator of sources. For defense/military news, they are one of the top their news sources as their writers actually understand the details of the machines they report on.
