美国和沙特阿拉伯联合对伊拉克东部的伊朗支持民兵组织的后勤和武器设施进行了空袭[1]。此举针对伊朗伊斯兰革命卫队在过去72小时内发动的30多次无人机攻击[1]。沙特阿拉伯证实参与了这次联合军事行动，称其目的是回应近期对沙特石油设施的无人机攻击[1]。
伊朗革命卫队随后以弹道导弹进行了报复[1]。约旦军方宣布拦截并摧毁了伊朗发射的5枚导弹[2]，美国中央司令部表示已拦截针对美军的全部伊朗导弹[1][2]。这是特朗普总统上周五暂停军事行动以便外交谈判后，伊朗首次针对美国基地的导弹攻击[1]。美国中央司令部声明表示"伊斯兰革命卫队及其恐怖代理必须停止这些攻击，以避免进一步的美国军事反应"[1]。
紧张局势加剧的背景下，2026年2月至4月期间，伊朗联盟民兵对伊拉克美国人员和设施进行了600多次攻击[1]，过去数周内有4名美国士兵被杀[1]。伊朗革命卫队还声称在霍尔木兹海峡拦截了三艘油轮[1]。事件发生于2026年7月29日[1]。
The United States and Saudi Arabia conducted coordinated airstrikes against Iranian-backed militia positions in eastern Iraq on July 29, targeting what the US Central Command described as "multiple terrorist logistics and weapons facilities."[1] The military action came in response to more than 30 drone attacks launched by Iran's Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps within the preceding 72 hours.[1] Saudi Arabia confirmed its participation in the strikes, stating they were a response to recent drone attacks on Saudi oil facilities.[1]
Iran subsequently launched a ballistic missile assault against American military installations, including a US Air Force base and Central Command facility in Jordan.[1] According to US Central Command, all missiles directed at American forces were intercepted.[1][2] Jordan's military separately reported intercepting and destroying five Iranian missiles early Wednesday morning.[2] The Iranian Revolutionary Guard Corps claimed it had seized three oil tankers in the Strait of Hormuz.[1]
This escalation marked the first Iranian missile attack on US bases since President Trump suspended military operations the previous Friday to pursue diplomatic negotiations.[1] The recent tensions follow a broader pattern of hostilities; Iranian-backed militias conducted over 600 attacks on US personnel and facilities in Iraq between February and April 2026, resulting in the deaths of at least four American soldiers in recent weeks.[1] US Central Command issued a statement warning that "the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps and its terrorist proxies must cease these attacks to avoid further US military response."[1]
