TL;DR

The Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps claimed it struck 21 American targets across three countries overnight — the Muwaffaq Salti Air Base in Jordan, the US Fifth Fleet headquarters in Bahrain, and the Ali Al Salem Air Base in Kuwait. US media reports quote American officials saying most launches were intercepted and no significant damage was recorded. The New York Times reports that the IRGC's claim of hitting 21 separate targets appears exaggerated.
