"Event 4 explicitly mentions intercepted debris in Jordan from an Iranian missile strike on Israel. The new event describes a US security alert in Jordan due to aerial threats, which is a direct administrative and safety consequence of the physical presence of missile debris and ongoing aerial activity in Jordanian airspace caused by the strikes described in Event 4."
"Event 3 describes a direct Iranian missile strike on Israeli territory. This escalation contributes to the broader regional instability and 'spillover' mentioned in the new event's summary, leading to the heightened security alert in neighboring Jordan as part of the wider Iran-Israel conflict theater."
"Event 11 marks the resumption of direct missile strikes by Iran against Israel, escalating the conflict. This escalation creates the volatile environment and expanding regional security risks that necessitate the US security alert in Jordan described in the new event."
