Iranian armed forces have reportedly launched an attack on United States military positions in Jordan, according to Russian media outlet RIA Novosti, citing a US official speaking to Fox News.

No significant damage has occurred so far, and nearly all missiles have been intercepted to date, the news channel reported.

Earlier, Press TV reported that Iran had fired missiles at US military bases in West Asia, as well as at American vessels in the Strait of Hormuz.

Additionally, Axios journalist reported, citing an unnamed American official, that the US had launched a strike believed to have targeted Iranian missile launchers on Larak Island.

The US and Israel began striking targets in Iran on 28 February, which was subsequently met with Iranian retaliation.

In mid-June, Tehran and Washington signed a memorandum of understanding on a cessation of hostilities, but shortly afterwards both sides resumed exchanging attacks. The conflict remains unresolved to this day.
