The Zioneer reports that Iran is attacking American targets in Jordan with ballistic missiles, in what the source describes as a response to recent events. No details on the specific targets, number of missiles, or any interceptions or casualties are yet available.
At around 00:40 Jerusalem, N12 correspondent Asaf Rosenzweig reported explosions in Jordan following launches from Iran. Shortly thereafter, The Zioneer received a report stating that Iran had launched ballistic missiles at American targets in Jordan, in what the source described as a response to recent events. No details on the specific bases or installations targeted, the number of missiles fired, or whether any were intercepted or caused casualties were available.
The Zioneer has previously documented multiple Iranian ballistic missile attacks on US bases in Jordan. On July 12, reports indicated Iran fired approximately 10 ballistic missiles at US targets in Jordan and Kuwait. On July 29, a US official confirmed that at least four Iranian ballistic missiles struck the Muwaffaq Salti Air Base in Jordan, characterizing the barrage as a 'major attack.' On July 17, a coordinated Iranian barrage targeted US bases in Jordan, Kuwait, and Gulf states including Bahrain. Earlier incidents in June and July saw open-source reports of Iranian missiles striking Jordan and triggering phone alerts among Jordanian citizens. The source quality evolved from unverified Iranian claims (July 15) and open-source intelligence (June 11) to on-record confirmation by a US official (July 29).
These attacks are part of an ongoing direct kinetic confrontation between Tehran and Washington, as The Zioneer has reported. The current report, if confirmed, would mark yet another escalation in this pattern.
No official confirmation from US, Jordanian, or Iranian sources has been received at this hour. Specific targets, missile numbers, interceptions, and casualties remain unknown.
