## Prediction

Within 24 hours, Washington and Amman are likely to signal accelerated consultations on base security and Jordan’s role in regional operations, possibly via joint statements or leaked Pentagon talking points. The strike on the Muwaffaq Salti fuel depot will trigger Jordanian concerns about domestic backlash and regime stability if the kingdom appears too closely tied to US and Israel operations. The US will push for rapid reinforcement of air defenses and hardening of infrastructure, while Jordan will seek security guarantees and economic offsets. Confirmation would be publicized high-level calls, announced security reviews, or new aid commitments; denial would be Jordan minimizing the incident as an accident with no follow-on US engagement. The political calibration in Amman will determine whether Jordan remains a reliable forward operating partner or begins distancing from US kinetic campaigns.

## Drivers

- Multiple warnings that Muwaffaq Salti depots were destroyed and that Jordan is a critical US hub
- CENTCOM assessment highlighting Levant posture concerns
- Iranian and proxy narrative of targeting US-linked bases
