Iran Says It Killed ‘Large Number’ of US Forces in Jordan; America Says No Casualties

Iran said the missile and drone strikes were retaliation as Jordan intercepted 10 missiles and reported no injuries, officials said.

  • Iranian attacks on United States bases expanded across the Middle East early Wednesday, with The Jordanian army intercepting 10 ballistic missiles and air raid alerts ringing in Bahrain. This escalation followed recent United States strikes on Iranian targets.
  • Washington hit Iranian targets on Larak to prevent Tehran from planting sea mines in the Strait of Hormuz, marking the first known strikes in several weeks. These actions triggered the escalating cycle of retaliation.
  • Iranian state media reported 11 people died in United States strikes across the south, while Seven people were killed in Khuzestan and the Red Crescent documented four deaths in Kuhestak from shrapnel wounds.
  • President Donald Trump warned that if Iran retaliated, "they will be hit again at a much harder and higher level," while Revolutionary Guards spokesman Hossein Mohebi promised "severe punishment" for the aggressors.
  • Ebrahim Zolfaghari, spokesperson for Iran's Khatam-al Anbiya central military command, warned Wednesday that countries cooperating with the United States face "more severe, more widespread and destructive responses." The diplomatic deadlock persists after six months of conflict.
