Iran strikes Jordan base, damaging U.S. aircraft as tensions surge

Iran attacked Muwaffaq Salti Air Base in Jordan, damaging multiple U.S. aircraft including an A-10 with a missing wing and several F-15s, and destroying drones. The broader conflict has killed 18 U.S. service members and injured over 800. In response to Iranian missile strikes on a U.S. Navy vessel, the U.S. destroyed five Iranian oil carriers, and fired about 30 Patriot interceptors, with CSIS warning that roughly 65% of Patriot stocks have been used since February, leaving fewer than 850 on hand.
