A Jordanian official's warning to Iraq, carried by Al-Hadath, marks a further escalation in the kingdom's posture amid the broader regional confrontation between the US-led coalition and Iran. Jordan has been a direct target of Iranian missile strikes in recent weeks, as reported by The Zioneer, and Amman has sought to deter any spillover from the conflict.
