Event details
Iranian state media said the military fired 10 ballistic missiles at Muwaffaq Salti airbase in Jordan; Jordan's armed forces said eight Iranian missiles were intercepted with no reported casualties or damage. ABC and Anadolu also reported Kuwait intercepted three ballistic missiles, one cruise missile and 10 drones, with one injury.
Context
Jordan and Kuwait are now part of the retaliation envelope around U.S. basing, so the next watchpoint is whether defensive intercepts stay clean or falling debris and base alerts widen the coalition response.
