Newly-released footage from Middle East Spectator shows two confirmed impacts at the Muwaffaq Salti Air Base in Jordan, according to the source. The visual evidence contradicts earlier assertions by Jordanian officials that all incoming fire was intercepted. The base has been a recurring target in the ongoing multi-front escalation involving Iranian missile strikes.
Newly-obtained footage published by Middle East Spectator at 22:37 Jerusalem time shows two confirmed impacts at the Muwaffaq Salti Airbase in Jordan, the source says. The clip — described by the source as very clear — directly contradicts earlier Jordanian assertions that all incoming fire was intercepted during the initial wave of attacks. The footage arrives hours after The Zioneer reported at 13:54 that an unverified source claimed Iranian ballistic missiles struck at least three F-16 jets at the same base. That report, which echoed several IRGC claims of successful strikes throughout the day, has not been visually or officially confirmed. The new footage shows impacts but does not specify whether aircraft, infrastructure, or personnel were hit.
This development follows a day of competing accounts regarding the base. Early reports at 04:58 Jerusalem spoke of interceptors downing Iranian missiles over Jordan and explosions heard near Amman, alongside a Jordanian military announcement that five Iranian missiles targeting a US air base were intercepted. Over the following hours, the IRGC issued a series of escalating claims — from striking F-35 facilities, to destroying F-35, F-15, and F-16 aircraft with 12 ballistic missiles, to claiming a second wave of hits — all of which remained unverified and were at various points contradicted by US statements that Patriot and THAAD systems had intercepted the incoming missiles. The single unverified source cited by The Zioneer at 13:54 was the first non-IRGC claim of impacts at the base, and the new footage now provides the first visual evidence of two impacts.
As The Zioneer reported at 05:17 and 05:16 Jerusalem, the base had been a target earlier in the campaign, with footage of activity near the base circulating and interceptions reported nearby. The episode is part of a wider Iranian multi-front campaign against US and allied positions in the region, which has included footage of an explosion at the US 5th Fleet base in Bahrain, as reported by Middle East Spectator at 05:29 Jerusalem (The Zioneer, 07:26).
No official confirmation or casualty figures have been released by US, Jordanian, or Israeli authorities. The nature of what was hit — aircraft, infrastructure, or personnel — and the extent of damage remain unverified.
