Iran-U.S. Regional War

The United States launched overnight strikes on dozens of targets in Iran after Tehran targeted a U.S.-used base in Jordan, ending a brief lull in the five-month war. Iran fired missiles toward Jordan for a second day and struck Kuwait, killing one worker, while the IRGC threatened countries aiding Washington with a “harsh response.” Egypt said a drone caused fires aboard two vessels at Damietta, bringing the conflict onto Egyptian territory. CENTCOMCentral Commandtheater-level Unified Combatant Command of the U.S. Department of Defense responsible for the broader Middle East said the Jordan attack was intercepted and denied IRGC claims that three F-35s were destroyed.
