According to the Israeli news site Admakr, Iran launched missiles at Jordan overnight in retaliation for US and Saudi airstrikes in Iraq that killed dozens of Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps operatives. The report presents the missile launch as a direct response to the strikes. The claims remain unverified.
The report by Admakr adds to a series of escalating incidents between the US-led coalition and Iran. The Zioneer has previously reported on the US air campaign against IRGC targets, including strikes on bases in Bushehr province (July 9) and the IRGC's threats of retaliation. The alleged missile launch at Jordan, if confirmed, would mark a significant escalation by Iran against a neighboring state. No independent verification of the claims was available at press time.
