Jordan says it intercepted 10 missiles from Iran
Jordan's army said its air defences intercepted 10 of 13 ballistic missiles launched from Iran that entered the kingdom's airspace, while three fell in remote areas away from populated centres.
The army said no casualties were reported.
An earlier Jordanian army statement had said air defence systems intercepted eight missiles that breached the kingdom's airspace at dawn Monday. That statement came shortly after Iran's Revolutionary Guards said they had attacked US military targets in Jordan.
