The military escalation in the Middle East has reached a new dimension. While simultaneous attacks occurred in the region on Wednesday, the Iran Revolutionary Guards targeted the Prince Hasan and King Faisal bases in Jordan. As the US continues its attacks against Iran, concerns are growing that the conflict will spread to other countries in the region.
The Jordanian Armed Forces successfully intercepted four Iranian missiles and four UAVs heading towards the country. It was reported that two missiles fell in deserted areas, causing no casualties or property damage. In parallel, Bahrain announced that its air defense systems prevented "Iranian air attacks," while early warning systems were activated in the Saudi Arabian city of Dammam.
The developments coincided with new attacks by the US military on Iranian military targets, including Lark Island near the Strait of Hormuz. The increasing tension around the Strait of Hormuz directly threatens international oil trade and maritime transportation, while global oil prices have surged. Following the increased threats by Iran-backed Houthis in the Red Sea, some tankers carrying Saudi crude oil were forced to change their routes.
