IRGC said that they have hit four sites at the US Al Azraq airbase in Jordan using long range missiles in response to US strikes around the Strait of Hormuz earlier.
Today is day 103 since the US-Israel war on Iran started. Iran’s Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC) said it attacked the United States fifth fleet in Bahrain and an airbase in Jordan in response to US strikes around the Strait of Hormuz earlier. Meanwhile, Kuwait said their defences were intercepting incoming projectiles from Iran. IRGC said that they have hit four sites at the US Al Azraq airbase in Jordan using long range missiles.
The Iranian strike was initiated this time on Bahrain, Jordan and Kuwait only after the US military Central Command (CENTCOM) announced on X that it had targeted Iranian air defence, ground control stations and surveillance radar sites near the strait as a measure of “self-defence strikes” in response to what US President Donald Trump said was the downing of a US Apache helicopter on Tuesday.
Now, the escalation of violence indicates that a deal to end the war, that was started by the US-Israeli forces by attacking Iran, may take time to materialise.
