Iranian officials confirmed that Iran attacked the Muwaffaq Salti and Prince Hassan military bases in Jordan.

Explosions were also reportedly heard in Bahrain following launches from Iran.

The IRGC confirmed that it launched missiles at a US military base in Jordan in response to US attacks on Iranian oil tankers.

At the same time, the IRGC announced plans to attack oil tankers in Kuwait and Bahrain and called on their crews to “abandon the ships.”

Jordan announced that 20 ballistic missiles were launched from Iran toward its territory, with its air defense systems intercepting and destroying 18 of them.

According to the statement, the two remaining missiles landed in areas away from population centers. No casualties were reported in the attack.

A US official told Reuters on Tuesday evening that the US struck the tankers following attempted missile attacks against a US Navy warship.

According to the official, the strikes were carried out after additional Iranian attempts to launch missiles at the American vessel.
