Iranian reports: IRGC base in Chabahar hit by six missiles

Jordan's military reports that its air defenses successfully intercepted 10 of 13 Iranian ballistic missiles that targeted US facilities within the kingdom. The military disclosed that three missiles fell in remote locations distant from populated areas, whereas the remaining ten missiles entered Jordanian airspace and were neutralized by the country's air defenses.

Jordanian state television announced that sirens were sounded in the Mafraq and Aqaba governorates as Iranian strikes were directed at US interests and bases in the region, in retaliation for previous US assaults on Iran. However, two US officials confirmed to Reuters that no American casualties have been reported thus far in connection with the Iranian attack on Jordanian facilities.

Iran's Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps claimed that the assault resulted in a significant number of US forces being killed; yet, there has been no official confirmation from the United States to substantiate these allegations. These attacks occur amidst a heightened state of conflict between Iran and the United States, with Tehran persistently targeting US sites and bases in the region as a response to American strikes on Iranian targets.
