The Israeli army announced on Sunday that Israeli and Jordanian forces intercepted an Iranian missile that had been fired towards the city of Aqaba in Jordan.

Minutes before this interception, the Israeli army had reported identifying missiles launched from Iran towards Aqaba and warned of the possibility of attacks "spilling over" into Israeli territory.
