US targets Larak Island while Iran strikes air bases in Jordan | BBC News

Iran and the US have traded strikes after American forces attacked two rocket launchers on Larak Island in the Strait of Hormuz.

The US strike is the first known attack on Iran since President Donald Trump paused a renewed military campaign in late July.

Iran said it had struck US military bases in Jordan in response, with Jordan’s army saying it had intercepted eight missiles early on Monday morning.

Iran’s state TV also said the Iranian army had targeted an air base in the UAE with drones, however, the UAE’s Ministry of Defence denied the reports that Al-Minhad Air Base had been targeted as "unfounded". The UAE did confirm it shot down a drone.
