A report states that the Prince Hassan base in Jordan sustained damage during the Iranian missile barrage. The extent of the damage is not specified.
A new report this afternoon states that the Prince Hassan base in Jordan sustained damage during the Iranian missile barrage that struck the kingdom early Sunday. The report does not specify the extent of the damage or any casualties. This development follows the thread of Sunday morning's events: at 04:52 Jerusalem, The Zioneer published a series of bulletins tracking the attack, beginning with unverified indicators of missile launches from western Iran, then reports that the missiles were targeting US bases in Jordan, followed by a confirmation from Jordanian officials that three Iranian missiles struck the kingdom with no casualties. A subsequent bulletin at the same time reported minor damage at the Muwaffaq al-Salti Air Base.
Later, at 06:33 Jerusalem, the IRGC claimed it had struck the Prince Hassan base, destroying a command center and MQ-9 hangars, as part of its retaliation for US airstrikes, as The Zioneer reported. That claim was not independently confirmed at the time. The new report this afternoon appears to be the first independent corroboration that damage occurred at the base, though the details remain unverified.
The Iranian missile barrage was part of a broader retaliatory wave that has impacted multiple US and allied bases across the region. As The Zioneer has reported, satellite imagery has documented damage at Israel's Ramat David Airbase, Bahrain's Isa Air Base, and the Muwaffaq al-Salti base in Jordan. The Prince Hassan base, located near the Iraqi border, is a key Jordanian military installation.
What remains open: The specific extent of the damage, any casualties, and whether the IRGC's claim of a directly targeted command center is accurate. The new report is from a single source and has not been independently confirmed. The Zioneer will continue to monitor.
