Iran reportedly intensifies targeting of Jordan air base
Al Jazeera Global News reports increased Iranian targeting of Muwaffaq Salti Air Base near Al-Azraq, amid an escalating Iran–US conflict.
Iran has increased its targeting of Jordan’s Muwaffaq Salti Air Base near Al-Azraq in recent weeks, according to Al Jazeera Global News.
The base has previously been reported as a US military facility in Jordan. The supplied report does not detail the number, timing or nature of the reported attacks.
Iran reportedly said it had fired ballistic missiles at the base in retaliation for US strikes on five Iranian oil tankers. That account has not been independently verified in the supplied material.
The material also does not establish whether the base was hit, whether damage occurred or whether there were casualties. Earlier claims about damage to US aircraft at the facility have likewise not been independently verified.
The reported developments come amid an escalating conflict between Iran and the United States, placing the Jordanian base within a broader regional security confrontation.
