IRGC Attacks U.S. Bases in Jordan in Retaliation for Larak Island Bombing

In a rapid and dangerous military escalation, tensions between the United States and Iran have entered a severe new phase. Following the U.S. airstrike targeting Iran's Larak Island, the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC) retaliated by launching drone and missile attacks against U.S. military bases in Jordan. This swift counter-response has heightened international alarms regarding the outbreak of a wider regional war. Military forces on both sides remain on high alert as diplomatic channels scramble to de-escalate the crisis before it spirals into a full-scale conflict. Political analysts warn that this latest escalation threatens the delicate security balance in the Middle East, posing serious risks to regional stability and international security [Reuters](https://www.reuters.com)
