Iran Launches Missile and Drone Attacks on US Bases in Jordan and BahrainPreviousNext

Iran launched missile and drone attacks targeting US military bases in Jordan and Bahrain, with the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps claiming significant damage. Jordan intercepted most missiles, and Kuwait reported responding to drone attacks. Iran's actions followed recent US strikes on Iranian targets near the Strait of Hormuz, which Washington said were in response to Iranian threats and attacks on shipping. US officials reported no casualties from the Iranian attacks, despite Tehran's claims of inflicting losses.
