Iran launched approximately ten ballistic missiles toward American targets in Jordan and Kuwait, according to reports. The launches are described as the first wave of Iran's response to attacks on Iranian territory. No details on interceptions or impacts are yet available.
A report early Sunday morning, circulating around 05:25 Jerusalem, stated that approximately ten ballistic missiles were launched from western Iran toward American military positions in both Jordan and Kuwait. This wave, described as the first of Iran's response to earlier attacks on its territory, broadens the scope of confirmed targets from Jordan alone to include Kuwait, as per the latest update.
This development follows a sequence of reports tracked overnight by The Zioneer. The first unverified reports of possible Iranian missile launches appeared at 04:52 Jerusalem. By 05:25, a report specified that the missiles were targeting US bases in Jordan. At 03:28 Jerusalem, The Zioneer had already reported an unverified claim of five American missiles being launched toward targets in Iran. The corroboration of the Iranian launches has progressed from early security-channel reports to more specific accounts identifying launch origin, count, and targets, but remains sourced from unverified reports without official confirmation.
As The Zioneer reported on Thursday, July 9, Iran has previously launched ballistic missiles at a base in Jordan, and additional reports have described strikes toward US bases in Kuwait, Bahrain, and Qatar, as well as cruise missiles targeting US ships off Bahrain. This morning's reported launches represent a further escalation in the ongoing regional conflict.
It remains unverified whether any of the missiles were intercepted, struck their targets, or caused casualties or damage. No official confirmation from the US or regional governments has been reported.
