IRGC Launches Ballistic Missiles and Drones at U.S. Bases in Jordan

Iran's Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps launched a retaliatory barrage of ballistic missiles and drones against U.S.-operated military facilities in Jordan, targeting King Hussein and Al-Azraq airbases following American strikes on Iranian positions in the Strait of Hormuz.

Why this matters. Expands direct confrontation between Tehran and Washington to third-party host nations in the region, threatening regional air-defense stockpiles and raising the likelihood of further U.S. retaliatory strikes inside Iranian territory.
