A US judge on Thursday allowed an Iranian-born engineer to be released on bail just days before his trial on charges linked to a deadly drone attack on a US military base in Jordan carried out by Iran-backed terrorists in 2024.

US District Judge Indira Talwani in Boston had previously declined to release Mahdi Sadeghi, a dual US-Iranian citizen, from custody, citing the risk he might flee to avoid trial. He is charged with conspiracy to illegally procure technology used in a navigation system for Iran's military drones
