An Iranian the source reported that five missiles were launched toward Jordan, with two directly hitting the Muwaffaq Salti Air Base. The claim has not been verified by independent sources.
An Iranian source claimed on Thursday morning that two of the five ballistic missiles fired at Jordan earlier today struck the Muwaffaq Salti Air Base, contradicting the official Jordanian account that all were intercepted. The claim is unverified and has not been corroborated by any independent or official source.
At 00:48 Jerusalem, the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC) launched five ballistic missiles toward the base in eastern Jordan, according to the thread of events reported by The Zioneer. Jordan's military stated that its air defenses intercepted and destroyed all five missiles, with no casualties or damage reported. In response, the United States carried out a two-hour wave of strikes against IRGC targets inside Iran, including command centers and missile facilities. The new Iranian claim of direct hits on the base challenges that earlier narrative, but remains unsubstantiated.
The Muwaffaq Salti Air Base (also known as Azraq) has been a recurring target in the ongoing kinetic confrontation between the United States and Iran. As The Zioneer has reported on multiple occasions, the base has been struck by Iranian ballistic missiles and drones during July 2026, with varying degrees of damage reported. The base serves as a key hub for U.S. and coalition operations in the region.
No details on casualties, the type of missiles used, or the response of air defense systems are available at this time. The report originates from an Iranian source and has not been confirmed by Jordanian, U.S., or other independent sources.
