US troops reveal heavy damage to Middle East bases

Anonymous US service members have supplied CBS News with photographs purportedly showing extensive damage to American military facilities across the Middle East following Iranian missile and drone attacks.

The troops claimed the scale of destruction had not been fully conveyed to the US public and raised concerns about the effectiveness of air defences protecting American installations.

The images reportedly include a destroyed E-3 Sentry surveillance aircraft at Prince Sultan Air Force Base in Saudi Arabia, along with damaged buildings and burned-out vehicles at bases in Kuwait.



A US War Department inspector general report reportedly estimated equipment losses at $3.7 billion, including nearly 60 aircraft, with hundreds of structures damaged or destroyed across bases in Kuwait, Bahrain, Qatar, the UAE, Saudi Arabia, Iraq, Oman and Jordan.

Iranian officials have meanwhile said the strikes were retaliation for US-Israeli military action against Iran and warned that further attacks would bring a stronger response.

  3. The Stump administration can crank up the propaganda machine all it likes, the truth has a habit of finding a voice. Moreover, the further they push Iran, the worse its obviously going to get for them.
