Iran warns of ‘eye for an eye’ response if US follows through on Trump’s threats to destroy infrastructure – Middle East crisis live

Iran's military launched missiles at Jordan on Wednesday, according to The Guardian. Jordanian air defenses intercepted four of them, with two additional missiles falling in remote, uninhabited areas. The Jordanian military reported no casualties or damage. The strikes follow escalating threats from U.S. President Trump, who vowed to destroy Iranian bridges or power plants for each attack on shipping in the Strait of Hormuz. Iran's military responded with its own threat: if the U.S. follows through, it will stop the flow of Gulf oil and target regional infrastructure.
