ALBAWABA - The United States fired targeting two rocket launchers on Larak Island in the Strait of Hormuz. In response, Tehran launched airstrikes on American military bases in Jordan and the UAE.
Jordan said it had intercepted eight missiles from Iran early on Monday morning. This is the first known American attack on Tehran since late July, according to Iran's Army.
