Iran War: Iranian media report missile attacks on Jordan

Iran has reportedly launched a wave of rocket attacks on US military bases in Jordan. The attacks are said to be in retaliation for US military strikes on Iranian oil tankers. According to Iranian news agency Tasnim, there were multiple explosions on two US bases in Jordan, although these reports could not be independently confirmed.

The US military had previously stated that its attacks on Iranian tankers were in response to Iranian ballistic missile attacks on a US warship. Iranian media reported explosions near the island of Charg and the port city of Dschask.
