## Prediction

Within 24 hours, the U.S. will convene emergency high-level consultations—virtually or in person—with Jordan and key Gulf Cooperation Council states (Saudi Arabia, UAE, Kuwait, Bahrain, Qatar) to coordinate defensive and diplomatic responses to Iran. The focus will be air defense reinforcement, maritime security posture, and calibrated messaging to Tehran and global markets. Jordan will seek visible guarantees to shore up domestic legitimacy after strikes on its territory and Aqaba. Confirmation would be readouts of ministerial-level calls, joint communiqués, or announcements of additional U.S. deployments; denial would be conspicuous silence and purely unilateral statements.

## Drivers

- Direct Iranian ballistic and cluster attacks on U.S.-used bases and Aqaba
- IRGC threats against Gulf ports hosting U.S. forces
- CENTCOM threat level marked CRITICAL in the region
- Historical pattern of rapid U.S.-GCC coordination after major shocks
