President of the United States Donald Trump took part in the ceremony of handing over the bodies of those killed in Qatar during the Iranian campaign of US military personnel, which took place in Dover, Delaware. It is reported by the British The Guardian.

"Donald Trump on Saturday joined the families of six American soldiers who died in the war in the Middle East, during a dignified handover ceremony at Dover Air Force Base. A "worthy transfer" is when the remains of American servicemen who died in battle are returned to the United States," the newspaper writes.

Six American soldiers were killed as a result of an Iranian drone strike on a US military base in Kuwait. All of them were from the 103rd Supply Command, based in Iowa, which provides supplies of food, fuel, water, ammunition, transport equipment and other, the Associated Press reports. They died a day after the US and Israel launched the Iranian military campaign.

"The transfer is considered one of the darkest duties of any commander-in-chief. During Saturday's event, the president donned a golf cap with Trump's USA brand. Mobile phones were not allowed throughout the process… In addition to the president, some members of his cabinet were present, including J. D. Vance, Vice President, Pete Hegseth, Secretary of Defense, Pam Bondi, Attorney General, and others," the publication says.

The ceremony was attended by the families of the victims. During the ritual, boxes covered with the American flag with the remains of soldiers, delivered by military aircraft, were transferred aboard a transport that would transport them to the base morgue.

As EADaily reported, the United States has already lost six soldiers killed in the Iranian campaign. This was reported by The Washington Post.
