Surprise attack: CENTCOM tries to save face as Iran launches fresh missile barrages on US Forces?

Fresh tensions erupt in the Middle East as Iran's Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps claims it launched ballistic missiles at a US air base and CENTCOM facilities in Jordan in response to American actions. The IRGC also says it stopped three oil tankers in the Strait of Hormuz, while US Central Command announced joint strikes with Saudi forces on Iran-aligned sites in Iraq following a wave of drone attacks. As both sides exchange military blows and the regional confrontation widens, questions grow over the risk of a broader conflict and its impact on global security and energy markets.
