IRGC Claims U.S. Jets Destroyed as CENTCOM Rejects Reported Damage

Overview

• Iran’s Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps released images it said showed destroyed hangars at Jordan’s Muwaffaq Salti Air Base and claimed multiple U.S. F-35s were lost.
• U.S. Central Command posted a direct denial saying no U.S. aircraft were damaged or destroyed and that missiles and drones were intercepted or failed to reach targets.
• Iranian officials publicly warned of alleged Israeli false-flag plots and accused the United States of striking civilian areas on islands and in southern cities.
• Egypt’s government formally rejected media reports that it blamed Iran for an attack on Damietta Port and called those links baseless.
• The clash of official claims highlights a wider information battle that follows weeks of strikes, counterstrikes, shipping incidents, and growing diplomatic strain that raise the risk of further kinetic escalation and harm to civilian infrastructure.
