Air-raid sirens sounded across several areas of Jordan on Monday evening after Iranian missiles breached the kingdom's airspace. The alerts were activated at about 21:05 Israel time to warn residents and direct them to follow official instructions. Jordan's Public Security Directorate said three intermittent sirens indicate an active threat and advised people to remain where they were, take shelter in the nearest building if outside, and stay away from windows and exposed areas. A single siren indicates the threat has ended. Initial reports did not provide a missile count or confirm interceptions, impacts, casualties or damage.
