According to an Israeli news analysis, Iranian attacks on US military positions in Jordan have intensified over the past five days, with the most recent strike killing two American soldiers and leaving one missing. The report says the attacks are part of a broader Iranian campaign targeting US bases in the region.
An Israeli news analysis reports that US forces stationed in Jordan have faced four consecutive Iranian attacks over the past five days, with the latest strike killing two American soldiers, leaving one missing, and wounding several others. The report, which does not cite a specific date for the most recent attack, describes the escalation as a deliberate Iranian campaign targeting one of the most important US military hubs in the region.
As The Zioneer reported earlier Sunday, the US military has already retaliated for the attack that killed its soldiers. CENTCOM said it struck the exact launch point of the missiles that killed the two American soldiers, part of the eighth consecutive night of US strikes on Iranian military targets.
The reported attacks on Jordan come amid a broader direct military confrontation between Washington and Tehran, which has seen multiple rounds of US airstrikes on Iranian sites and Iranian retaliatory strikes on US bases in Bahrain, Kuwait, and Jordan over the past week. The analysis notes that the increased frequency of attacks on Jordan is not coincidental, reflecting Tehran's prioritization of the country as a strategic target.
