Jordan accuses Iran of targeting key installations

Jordan has accused Iran of directly targeting sites in the kingdom, firing 119 missiles and drones in the week since US-Israeli strikes triggered a regional war, AFP reports.

Jordanian military spokesman Brigadier General Mustafa Hayari told a news conference that 108 of the projectiles had been intercepted.

“These missiles and drones were targeting vital installations inside Jordan and were not passing through our territories,” he said.
