Iran is attacking US forces in Jordan, Fox News reports, citing US source

Iran has launched attacks on US forces stationed in Jordan, according to a report by Fox News, citing a US source. The attacks have not caused any significant impact so far, with nearly all incoming missiles intercepted.

The Iranian assault comes after US forces targeted two missile launch platforms belonging to Iran's Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps on Larak Island. The US strike was in response to Iranian forces preparing to launch missiles loaded with naval mines toward the Strait of Hormuz.

According to Ajel English, the Revolutionary Guard had vowed to retaliate against the US strike on Larak Island, announcing that the American attack resulted in deaths and injuries among Iranian fighters and civilians. The US and Israel had previously attacked Iran on February 28, and Iran responded with its own strikes.
