Iran attacked US forces in Jordan, a US source familiar with the situation told Fox News on Monday.
The source added that nearly all missiles had been intercepted by US air defenses.
Explosions were heard near the southern Jordanian city of Aqaba following launches from Iran, local media reported.
Iranian state broadcaster Press TV reported that Iran had launched missiles at US ships in the Strait of Hormuz early on Monday morning.

Aqaba’s strategic and a thousand miles from Iran. Does that mean Iran’s got more of them when October comes around?
Maybe now it is time to do something to make it permanently stop. Who knows?
When do they run out of missiles?
There’s got to be at least one key railroad bridge which is critical to their economy.
Now would be a good time to take it down.
There’s 500,000 IRGC guys, and they all have to sleep somewhere. I think I know what to do.
I think the answer there is whenever China and/or Russia cease their deliveries. The US Navy may have Iranian ports locked down but I do not believe we have made an effort to stop land and air resupply .
**There’s 500,000 IRGC guys, and they all have to sleep somewhere. I think I know what to do.**
500k? Not sure. We could put ‘wanted’ posters up just like we did with the deck of cards when Saddam fell. These people need to be I.D.’d. Public hangings?-there may be too many of them.
**They have to sleep somewhere.**
I dunno bout that one. They gotta have homes to go to so they can get laid. No barracks but what do I know?
The last convulsions of a dying regime.
There is also the issue is the Caspian Sea, FRiend. If there are any large supplies moving from Russia to Iran (both are connected to the Caspian Sea), it is through it. Note that the Caspian Sea is the largest inland body of water in the world, and is three times the size of ALL of the Great Lakes, combined! It is an easy way to transport large cargo without worrying about a USN Virginia or Seawolf submarine messing up your cruise.
is the Caspian Sea = of the Caspian Sea
Iran manufactures Missiles and Drones. Why would they run out, unless all their manufacturing plants are destroyed.
Are you saying Russia is giving gifts to Iran? Because Iran currency is nearly worthless and Iran’s oil selling business is in a severe bear market.

FOX News’ @TreyYingst warns the latest attacks targeting U.S. bases are being taken extremely seriously as American forces work to shoot down incoming fire.
Yingst says more of the responsibility is shifting directly to U.S. forces on the ground, with CENTCOM putting its trust in American soldiers manning air defense systems.
He also recalls President Trump telling him it was “amazing to watch in real time” how quickly U.S. troops respond and how successful they can be at intercepting incoming fire.
Fully Agree!
There is only one way to end this madness but we don’t have the balls to do it. Nuke them all.
I think Russia would be more than happy giving Iran weapons, in the same way Iran was happy to give Russia drones in the recent past.
One of the key speculations on why the Director of the CIA was in Moscow a couple of days ago was that it had to do with weapon deliveries through the Caspian Sea. Maybe that’s true, maybe it was for something else, but the fact remains that the easiest (by far) way to deliver large amounts of anything to Iran during a time when America is trying to destroy any assistance to Iran, would be via the Caspian Sea.
I’m sure that Russia would not be necessarily against helping Iran hurt the US. Even for free. Throughout history there are many examples of Russia/the Soviets giving weaponry (sometimes even people, eg pilots for MiGs) is the past. That happens all the time. During the Biden years, the US for example donated a lot of weapons to Ukraine for free. I wouldn’t put it past the Russians to give Iran weapons for free.
Same for China btw. The Chinese would be particularly pleased to keep the US focused on crisis A and B, even if it means helping both Russia and Iran to stay on the fight.
Find out where they came from and obliterate everything within a five mile radius. Tell them next time it will be ten.
Are they still able to make more?
