Iran Guards say struck US base in Jordan

Tehran, July 16, 2026 (AFP) AFP

Iran's Revolutionary Guards said Thursday they had struck a US air base in Jordan with ballistic missiles in response to what they described as an American attack near a children's cancer hospital in Iran.

The IRGC said US forces had "used air bases located in Jordan to target various parts of Iran, including the vicinity of a children's cancer hospital", and that its aerospace force responded by "launching two waves of missile strikes" on the bases in Jordan, according to their website.
