Iran's Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC) claimed that its morning strike on an air base in Jordan destroyed three F-35 fighter jets and damaged three others, and that enemy soldiers and officers were killed or wounded. The claim is from a single Iranian source and has not been independently verified.
The latest claim from the IRGC follows a pattern of unverified statements about strikes on Jordanian air bases. Just minutes before this report, the IRGC claimed a strike on the Al-Azraq air base in Jordan. The new claim provides specific numbers: three F-35s destroyed and three damaged, along with unspecified enemy casualties. Independent verification remains unavailable, and US Central Command has not confirmed any of the IRGC's previous assertions regarding damage to aircraft or infrastructure. The IRGC's claims are part of a broader propaganda campaign amid ongoing tensions with the United States.
