AGP Executive Report

Last update: 6 hours ago

US-Iran Escalation: The U.S. launched another wave of strikes on Iran near the Strait of Hormuz as it resumed a naval blockade, while Iran retaliated by targeting U.S.-linked positions across the region, including Jordan. Jordan Air Defence: Jordan’s Armed Forces said it intercepted and shot down three missiles after they entered Jordanian airspace, with no casualties or damage reported. Diplomacy in Washington: U.S. Secretary of State Marco Rubio met Jordan’s FM Ayman Safadi, condemning Iran’s attacks on shipping and “unacceptable” strikes on Jordanian territory. Regional Fallout: Iran’s IRGC again urged Jordanians to demand the removal of U.S. bases, as sirens and flight disruptions were reported across the Gulf. Local Governance: The Lower House approved six articles of the amended 2026 Universities Law, including changes to university board structures. Water Crisis Response: Jordan is overhauling its water sector with a World Bank-backed efficiency project aimed at cutting losses and improving services for 1.6 million people. Crime Update: Jordan detained a man linked to Ireland’s Jamey Carney murder probe, with Irish authorities seeking to question him.
