US Official: No Major Damage in Iranian Attacks on US Forces in Jordan

Fox News reported, citing a U.S. official, that Iranian attacks targeting U.S. forces in Jordan did not result in significant damage. The official clarified that defenses intercepted all Iranian missiles launched toward U.S. forces, with no major damage recorded from the attack. Axios reported, citing a U.S. source, that U.S. forces targeted Iranian military sites to prevent the deployment of naval mines in the Strait of Hormuz. According to the source, the U.S. move was aimed at preventing Iranian forces from laying mines that could threaten navigation in the strait. In response, Iran launched ballistic missiles toward a U.S. base in Jordan, retaliating for the U.S. strike on Iranian sites linked to mine-laying operations in the Strait of Hormuz.
