## Prediction

Within 24 hours of the Al-Azraq base strikes, Jordan is likely to face localized displacement from areas near targeted bases, heightened public anxiety, and increased domestic criticism over hosting US forces. Medical and emergency services in affected governorates will experience surge demand, and the government may tighten internal security and assemble visible aid responses to maintain legitimacy. Regional and Western donors will be pressed to offer rapid support packages and air defense enhancements to prevent further erosion of Jordan’s stability. Confirmation would be reports of evacuations, protests, or emergency funding appeals; denial would be clear evidence of limited damage and a calm public reaction.

## Drivers

- Iranian launch of around 20 ballistic missiles at US-used Al-Azraq airbase
- Jordan’s economic fragility and dependence on Western security backing
- Pattern of domestic sensitivity to foreign military presence in Jordan
