Jordan Reports Missile Attack on US Military Base

Jordan: Reports of Missile Attack on U.S. Military Base

Shiite News: Reports have emerged of another missile attack in Jordan. The Jordanian Armed Forces confirmed that a U.S. military base was targeted by five missiles, which were allegedly launched from Iran. According to the Jordanian military, the country’s air defense systems intercepted and destroyed the missiles before they could cause any damage.

However, some local sources told Al Jazeera that two of the five missiles struck the Muwaffaq Al Salti Air Base, which hosts U.S. military forces. The Telegram channel “Naya” released videos claiming that thick smoke was seen rising from the base after the alleged impacts and that U.S. air defense systems failed to intercept the incoming missiles. According to these reports, multiple explosions were heard inside the base while emergency sirens continued to sound.

The reported attack comes amid heightened regional tensions. The article claims that resistance operations against U.S.-Saudi actions in Iraq are continuing, that Yemen has targeted Riyadh, and that the Iranian Navy has announced full control over the Strait of Hormuz. Reports of an attack on a U.S. military base in Jordan are being viewed as another indication of escalating tensions across the region, with armed groups allegedly targeting U.S. military installations.
