Jordanian air defenses intercepted a barrage of Iranian ballistic missiles amid the escalating US-Iran military conflict, following US strikes on five Iranian oil tankers that Washington said were retaliation for IRGC targeting of American assets. The war has drawn in regional actors including Jordan, which has found itself in the path of Iranian missile fire. Iranian state media reported that 'enemy' projectiles struck areas near Sirik, while Tehran said it remains ready for dialogue with regional nations to 'foster mutual trust' and 'achieve sustainable security,' signalling a possible diplomatic opening even as fighting continues.
