Jordan intercepts missiles launched from Iran

On Tuesday morning, the Jordanian Armed Forces reported the interception of missiles that entered Jordanian airspace from Iranian territory. Sources within the Jordanian military stated that four missiles were successfully intercepted, resulting in no casualties or property damage. However, some reports cited by local media suggest that three missiles may have landed on Jordanian soil, causing minor material damage. The Iranian Revolutionary Guard Corps claimed responsibility for the launch, stating that a United States air base in Jordan was the intended target. Iran called on the Jordanian people to advocate for the closure of American bases within their country, framing the action as a response to US strikes. Jordan has maintained that its defensive systems handled the incursion, emphasizing the absence of significant destruction. The incident reflects escalating tensions between Iran and the United States in the region. There are no official confirmations regarding successful hits on any military facilities.
