Iran strikes US bases in Jordan and Kuwait hours after US hits Iranian coastal defences

The US struck Iranian coastal surveillance and air-defence facilities on July 19 — the eighth consecutive night of attacks under Operation Epic Fury. Centcom said the strikes targeted IRGC forces behind a July 18 attack that killed two US troops in Jordan. Iran's army said it retaliated with drone strikes on US bases in Jordan and Kuwait within hours, widening the conflict across four countries.
