Iran’s repeated ballistic missile and drone strikes on Jordanian territory in 2026, often aimed at U.S. air bases such as Al-Azraq and facilities near Aqaba, stem from the broader U.S.-Iran conflict over the Strait of Hormuz and regional military support. Jordan’s air defenses have intercepted most incoming projectiles, with some landing in unpopulated areas, while Amman maintains official neutrality and protests airspace violations. Diplomatic contacts between the foreign ministers in late October focused on de-escalation amid ongoing U.S. strikes on Iranian targets. The UN Security Council has condemned the attacks. Upcoming U.S. or Israeli actions, any ceasefire talks, or further Iranian retaliation could shift the frequency of such strikes before key resolution dates.
