Failed Jordan attack on US ship
A missile has been fired at a US Navy ship docked in the Jordanian port of Aqaba, officials said.
The rocket flew over the USS Ashland and hit a neighbouring warehouse, US Commander Jeff Breslau said.
In a second attack minutes later another missile, also launched from Jordanian soil, was fired at an airport in Eilat, in neighbouring Israel.
No casualties were reported in either attack, which were both carried out using Katyusha rockets.
