US forces launched strikes on Iranian targets following an attack in Jordan, as Russian bombardments killed seven in Ukraine and prompted a security alert in neighboring Poland.

US Central Command conducted military strikes against targets in Iran in retaliation for a missile attack on American forces in Jordan, following warnings of a firm response from US President Donald Trump.

Simultaneously, Russian missile and drone strikes across Ukraine killed at least seven people, including two children. During the air raids, Polish police discovered a crater and fragments of an unidentified object that vanished from military radar. Poland scrambled fighter jets to secure its airspace, while Ukrainian officials stated the object was a Russian missile.

Meanwhile, Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy confirmed strikes on a Russian oil refinery and a logistics center in the Ryazan region, aimed at weakening Moscow's war financing capabilities.
