Jordan is becoming a new focus in the US-Iran war

The Iranian attack that killed two US soldiers and left one service member missing on July 17 was the fourth in five days on US forces in Jordan, multiple US officials said. Taken together, the attacks have wounded dozens of US service members and damaged a number of helicopters.

The flurry of attacks and the losses they have caused are a sign that Iranian forces not only still have ample missile stocks but have also become more adept at evading US air defence systems, said the US officials, who were speaking on the condition of anonymity to discuss operational matters.
