IRGC warns 'aggressor' will be 'punished' as Iran hits Jordan, Kuwait

Iran's Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC) issued a warning on Thursday, stating that "the aggressor will be punished today" and any country militarily assisting the U.S. would face a "harsh response." This threat followed Iranian missile and drone attacks on Jordan and Kuwait. In Kuwait, an assault on a Chinese company building in the north killed one worker and caused significant damage. Jordan's air defenses intercepted five Iranian ballistic missiles, preventing casualties and damage. Additionally, a drone-induced fire aboard two ships at Egypt's Damietta Port is presumed to be linked to Iran, with sources indicating it was a demonstration of Iran's capability to disrupt global shipping.
