IRGC, Iranian Army Launch Regionwide Retaliation
Iran launched a large-scale wave of retaliatory military operations targeting Washington’s assets in Jordan, Qatar, Oman, Kuwait, and Bahrain early on 12 July, following an overnight US escalation involving heavy strikes against the Islamic Republic.
The Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC) announced the strikes as a response to the “aggression of the child-killing US army.”
In several statements, the IRGC said its Aerospace Force struck the Prince Hassan Air Base in Jordan, “destroying” its command-and-control center and MQ-9 drone hangars with ballistic missiles.
