Jordan, Kuwait say intercepted Iranian attacks
The Jordanian and Kuwaiti militaries reported intercepting fresh salvos of Iranian missiles and drones on Thursday.
Jordan said it had intercepted Iranian missiles and drones, as Tehran responded to U.S. airstrikes by hitting Washington's allies in the region.
The Jordanian army said in a statement it had intercepted three missiles on Thursday morning, while a fourth landed in an uninhabited area, and that it had intercepted six drones on Wednesday evening, with no casualties or material damage.
The Iranian army meanwhile said that it would continue its strikes around the region until the attacks on Iran stopped, state television reported.
"The armed forces' retaliatory attacks will continue as long as the US attacks on the country's infrastructure and coastal areas continue," said army spokesperson Mohammad Akraminia according to state TV, adding that the country was ready for "every enemy scenario".
