An unverified source claims Iranian ballistic missiles struck and damaged at least three F-16 fighter jets at Muwaffaq Al-Salti Air Base in Jordan overnight, citing unidentified sources. No visual or official confirmation has been provided. The report echoes ongoing but unconfirmed IRGC claims of successful strikes at the base.
A fresh but entirely unverified report claims that Iranian ballistic missiles destroyed or damaged at least three F-16 fighter jets at the Muwaffaq Al-Salti Air Base in Jordan during last night's barrage. The claim, attributed by the source to unnamed 'sources,' has not been corroborated by any visual evidence or official statements from the US Central Command or Jordanian authorities. It emerges amid a wave of unconfirmed but repeated assertions by Iran's Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC) of precision strikes at this base and other US-associated targets across Jordan.
As The Zioneer reported earlier today (09:13), the IRGC claims 12 ballistic missiles hit US aircraft at this same base. At 06:20, visual evidence confirmed missile impacts at the base, contradicting earlier Jordanian claims of total interception—though the extent and nature of damage remained unclear. The thread began at 04:58 with unverified reports of long-range missile fire toward US bases in Jordan, followed by reports of explosions near Amman and footage of interceptor launches over the capital. By 05:12, the IRGC had claimed it fired 12 ballistic missiles at the base. No prior report from The Zioneer or elsewhere has independently corroborated the specific destruction of F-16 aircraft.
The report relies on a single, anonymous source and lacks any official or visual backing—placing it firmly at the Developing confidence level. The desk will continue to monitor for official confirmations or photographic evidence.
