The murder-for-hire was reportedly in response to the U.S. assassination of Qassim Soleimani, commander of the Revolutionary Guard's elite Quds Force.
The two soldiers were both awarded Purple Hearts on Feb. 14 for concussions suffered during the 2020 Iranian missile strike on U.S. forces in Iraq.
No damage or casualties were reported from the attack, the third in as many days.
The January 2020 strike killed Gen. Qassem Soleimani.
