Iran launched 10 ballistic missiles at a base in Jordan, according to reports from ynet. No details yet on the specific base, impacts, or casualties.
Reports from ynet at 16:26 Jerusalem indicate that Iran launched 10 ballistic missiles at a base in Jordan. This is the latest in a series of Iranian attacks on Jordan today. Earlier, at 03:57 Jerusalem, Jordan's military reported intercepting eight missiles, with an earlier report of 20 interceptions overnight. During the afternoon, additional launches toward Jordan were reported at 14:56 Jerusalem.
The Zioneer's thread tracked the escalation from early Thursday morning. At 03:57 Jerusalem, analyst Hananel Aviv reported additional launches toward the Gulf. This was followed by reports of sirens in Jordan and explosions in Kuwait. By 03:57, Jordan had confirmed interceptions—first generally, then specifically eight missiles, and later with airport delays. The final morning update noted that Jordan's announcement of eight interceptions followed an earlier report of 20 interceptions overnight. The corroboration evolved from single analyst reports to official Jordanian statements.
The Zioneer has reported on broader Iranian operations today. At 14:07 Jerusalem, Iran launched cruise missiles at US ships off Bahrain. At 14:33, reports emerged of missiles targeting US bases in Iraq. At 14:56, additional launches toward Jordan were reported. Over the past days, Iran has launched over 20 ballistic missiles at Israel (Mon Jun 8). Open-source reports from earlier today (Thu 12:59) suggested that some Iranian missiles hit Jordan, avoiding interceptors.
The specific base in Jordan targeted by the 10 missiles is not confirmed. It is unclear whether any of these missiles were intercepted or caused damage. The ynet report is unverified, and the relationship between this new salvo and the earlier interceptions remains unclear. No casualties or impacts have been confirmed.
