The Islamic Revolution Guards Corps (IRGC) says it has carried out a coordinated missile and drone strike on a US military base in Jordan, destroying several American aircraft, urging Jordanians to confront US forces stationed in the country.
In its 29th official statement issued by the IRGC Public Relations Department on Saturday, the force said its Aerospace Force launched the 20th wave of “Nasr 2” operations in response to overnight US attacks against Iran.
According to the statement, the operation targeted aircraft shelters and a large aircraft parking ramp at the US military facility in Azraq, eastern Jordan.
The IRGC went on to say that the strike resulted in the destruction of at least two US fighter jets and three additional aircraft, while causing significant damage to several others.
The statement further said the United States is escalating the war by targeting civilian infrastructure inside Iran, including hospitals, bridges, railways, ports and airports, noting that Washington is attempting to conceal battlefield setbacks by attacking civilian sites.
Addressing the people and armed forces of Jordan, the statement called on them to play a greater role in confronting the US military presence in the country, warning that foreign troops operating in Muslim lands are legitimate targets under the religious opinion of Islamic scholars from different schools of thought.
The statement further urged Jordanians to use “every available means” against US military personnel and called for the removal of American forces from Jordan, stressing that the United States is responsible for the deaths of Muslims in several countries, including Afghanistan, Iraq, Iran, Yemen, Lebanon and Palestine.
The IRGC’s statement comes as US forces continue to launch strikes against multiple targets in southern Iran.
On Friday, US military strikes targeted multiple locations in the southern Iranian province of Hormozgan overnight, including areas in and around the port city of Bandar Abbas, as well as key transportation infrastructure.
The United States has perpetrated numerous violations against Iranian territory since April 7, when US President Donald Trump announced a unilateral ceasefire in the latest bout of wholesale American-Israeli aggression targeting the Islamic Republic.
The violations continued even after Washington and Tehran signed a Pakistan-mediated memorandum of understanding last month, whose first clause clearly mandates cessation of aggression on all fronts.
The US has also been trying to help vessels evade the maritime route designated by the Islamic Republic for safe and legal passage through the Strait of Hormuz by seeking to escort trespassing vessels through an illegal passageway.
Iran’s Armed Forces have staged uncompromising retaliation in the face of each instance of violation, including those in support of illegal vessel movement in the Strait of Hormuz.

Andy Burnham announced this week that Labour got its response to October 7 wrong. Gaza, the incoming prime minister said, staring down the camera lens, is a “scar on our collective conscience” and jewish war crimes were committed. Keir Starmer, Burnham added, was too soft on Israeli terrorism
Israel committed the 9.11 attack and the 7-7 bombing to get the public behind Tony Blairs war on Iraq
The very deliberate enticing in of Hamas on October 7 is beyond dispute.
Israeli watch towers and even satellite monitoring watched as israel allowed them in
and Hamas went inside Israel. Some 250 people were taken hostage, and kept in tunnels
the israeli military then bombed the tunnels,
Netanyahu had said he will not rest until Iran and Turkey are gone

Midway through the woor, the ragheads blow up “several” planes. Three? Increased from a “couple”? (While stocks last.)
But no, according to colonel mcdonald’s, everything has gone boom boom. So this can’t be right. They would’ve put out the fire, but the desalination plants were no more (and only evian water is rated for fire-putting-out operations).
Throughout all the criminally insane homicidal and genocidal aggression of Mordor and the Jewnited States, Jordan hasn’t said jack shit in opposition to any of it. Instead, Jordan has gotten on its hands and knees and opened wide on both ends for the evil empire.
Of course, the “royal” family of Jordan couldn’t give a standing piss about their cuntry being cucked and shucked by the rabid yid jackals as long as they get to keep their titles and mansions and the money they’ve fleeced from the slack-jawed yokels.
“King” Abdullah claims to be a direct descendant of the deranged goat-f*cker Muhammad, while his mother was a social-climbing jewess, Toni Avril Gardiner. “King” Abdullah’s wife is easy on the eyes, and her parents were allegedly Palestinians, but I sure haven’t heard her speak up about Mordor’s nonstop genocidal rampage in Palestine. Rather, she’s an acolyte of the criminally insane World Economic Forum. They should both be whipped in the streets, coated with tar & feathers, and hanged from lampposts.
