Iran's IRGC says it attacked U.S. bases in Jordan in retaliation

Iran's Islamic Revolution Guard Corps (IRGC) said on Monday that its aerospace forces carried out retaliatory drone and ballistic missile strikes against U.S. targets at two air bases in Jordan earlier in the day.

The strikes were in response to the "U.S. and Israeli air aggression" against Iran's southern Larak Island in Hormozgan province on Sunday night, the IRGC said in a statement published by its official news outlet, Sepah News. In a statement on Sunday night, the IRGC said that many Iranian military personnel and civilians had been killed or wounded in the attack on Larak Island.
