The IRGC said it fired ballistic missiles at Camp Titin, a US Marine site on the Gulf of Aqaba, and at Prince Hassan Air Base late on Sept. 1 in retaliation for the Kuhestak strike, as sirens sounded in Aqaba and Mafraq. Jordan's army said 10 of 13 missiles that entered its airspace were intercepted and three fell in remote areas without casualties; a US official said there were no injuries or significant damage at Camp Titin, rejecting IRGC claims of US deaths.

Why it matters

It was the second Iranian missile attack on Jordan in under 48 hours, keeping the kingdom, which hosts US forces at several bases, on the front line of Iran's retaliation.
