An AFP analysis reported that at least 25 Iranian attacks targeted US facilities or personnel across the Middle East since the start of the war. The incidents occurred between February 28 and March 11, 1500 GMT. Four of the attacks targeted US embassies or consulates in Saudi Arabia, Kuwait, and Iraq, while 21 others involved missile or drone strikes on 13 different military sites hosting US troops. Among the targeted locations were Saudi Arabia’s Prince Sultan Air Base and Iraq’s Erbil Airport, each attacked at least four times. Qatar’s Al-Udeid Air Base and the UAE’s Al Dhafra Air Base were also hit twice each.

The analysis excluded seven additional attacks claimed against radar systems or US-operated missile defense networks. Satellite imagery confirmed damage from 12 of the recorded attacks, with the latest images dated March 5. Afterward, high-resolution satellite image access was restricted by US suppliers citing allied security concerns.

Separately, AFP noted around 30 attacks on energy infrastructure in the region since the conflict began, more than half attributed to Tehran, including 16 strikes across seven Gulf countries.
