U.S. forces intercepted Iranian ballistic missiles before launching joint precision strikes with Saudi Arabia on IRGC-directed proxy logistics sites in Iraq.
The Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps fired multiple ballistic missiles at U.S. forces in the Middle East Tuesday at 5:45 PM Eastern. Every single one was intercepted. Then America and Saudi Arabia hit back – hard. CENTCOM confirmed it in two posts that together tell the complete story of what this administration’s Iran policy actually looks like in practice. First: all Iranian missiles successfully intercepted. U.S. forces remain vigilant and at a high state of readiness. Second: U.S. and Saudi fighter aircraft conducted precision strikes across eastern Iraq, targeting IRGC-directed terrorist logistics and weapons sites responsible for more than 30 drone attacks in the previous 72 hours.
The IRGC fired. We intercepted everything. Then we destroyed their proxy infrastructure in Iraq. That’s the sequence. That’s the policy. The scale of what Iran has been attempting in the region deserves to be stated plainly. From February through April 2026 alone, Iran-aligned terrorist militias in Iraq made more than 600 attempted attacks on U.S. citizens and facilities. Six hundred. In three months.
