Iran answered the sinking of five tankers with missiles toward a Jordan air base. [1] Reuters filed the base with the tanker wave. [1] A base in Azraq is not a prohibited zone and not a closed strait. Print the base. Print five as the U.S. hull count. Do not average five and ten.

Keep Jordan and Hormuz in different sentences. A claim of damage is not a battle-damage assessment. Leave a named intercept table to the edition that owns a named intercept table.

Print the missiles as Reuters's Wednesday file. Do not print a new wave that belongs to a later edition.

Azraq remains a base sentence, not a strait chart and not a sixth hull.
Print Azraq. Print five. Wednesday is not a closed Hormuz.
