Jordan pays a price for its strong bond with the US amid repeated attacks by Iran

The Hashemite Kingdom of Jordan has faced mounting security and economic challenges in recent months. According to a report by The Times of Israel, the country has been the target of hundreds of drone and missile attacks attributed to the Islamic Republic, a situation linked to its close strategic alliance with the United States. These attacks occur as Jordan simultaneously grapples with the pressures of soaring energy prices and growing security concerns regarding instability in the West Bank. Despite these significant security and economic burdens, analysis suggests that the bond between Amman and Washington remains solid. Jordanian officials have continued to emphasize the importance of maintaining domestic stability and upholding security cooperation with their Western allies.
