U.S. targets Iranian forces after attacks on American service members

U.S. strikes on Iran targets after Jordan attack, raising Gulf security risks See how the conflict could affect oil flows, regional stability, and diplomacy

The United States said it carried out strikes against Iranian military targets after attacks in Jordan killed two American service members and left one missing. U.S. Central Command said the operations hit coastal surveillance, air defense, missile and drone storage, and maritime capabilities. The renewed fighting adds pressure to a fragile truce between Washington and Tehran and has raised concerns about security in the Strait of Hormuz, a key route for global oil shipments. U.S. officials also said American assets struck Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps forces linked to the Jordan attack. The U.S. Embassy in Amman issued a security alert after reports of a possible threat in Jordan, while Iranian officials said Tehran had suspended commitments under an interim agreement with the United States. Oil prices rose as investors monitored the impact of the conflict on regional stability and energy flows.
