1958 Union of Kingdoms of Iraq and Jordan into Arab Federation with King Faisal as head of state.

Is the verb omitted in above sentence? I think we need the verb "formed" here. Is this right?

It's a sentence fragment. They are common in timelines, as captions, and as headlines. Articles and verbs are typically omitted to keep the statement as concise as possible.
