The U.S. attacked Iran, Tehran retaliated by attacking U.S. bases in Jordan

The United States conducted airstrikes against two Iranian missile launchers on the island of Larak, according to a U.S. official. This marks the first known U.S. attack on Iran since late July. The U.S. claimed that Iran was preparing to launch minesweeping rockets through the Strait of Hormuz. In response, Iran stated that several military personnel and civilians were killed or injured during the strike and vowed to retaliate appropriately. Iran then announced that it had attacked two U.S. airbases in Jordan using projectiles and drones, targeting King Hussein and Al-Azraq bases. The U.S. previously asserted that all mines in the Strait of Hormuz had been removed and warned that any new mines would be destroyed. Recent tensions between the U.S., Israel, and Iran have led to significant casualties and displacement, with the Strait of Hormuz now blocked due to the conflict.

Iran claims to have fired missiles at two US bases in Jordan

Iran claims it launched ballistic missiles at two American air bases in Jordan as retaliation for a U.S. attack on Iranian missile launchers in the Strait of Hormuz.

Iran warned that future attacks would face an even stronger response and emphasized that enemy strikes would not weaken its control over the strait. The incident highlights ongoing tensions in the region related to the control of strategic waterways.

This marks the first known U.S. attack on Iran since late July. In response, Iran’s Revolutionary Guard stated that several soldiers and civilians were killed or injured in the strike and announced plans to retaliate. Shortly after, the Guard launched ballistic missiles and drone attacks against two U.S. air bases in Jordan, as reported by CNN.
