Iran launched a wave of retaliatory missile strikes targeting US military facilities across the Middle East, prompting heightened regional tensions and air defense alerts. Jordan's armed forces intercepted eight Iranian missiles that entered its airspace, preventing casualties and damage despite falling debris in some areas. The attacks came in response to recent US military action against Iranian targets, with Tehran vowing further retaliation if provoked. Several Gulf states activated emergency security measures as fears of a wider regional conflict grew, while Washington reaffirmed its commitment to protecting its forces and allies amid the rapidly escalating US-Iran confrontation.
