A Washington Post analysis has reported that Iranian airstrikes across the Middle East caused far greater damage to US military bases than officially acknowledged by Washington. Satellite imagery revealed that at least 228 facilities and military assets were damaged across 15 US bases, including 217 buildings and 11 military resources. The White House has not yet issued any response to the report.
According to the analysis, more than half of the damage occurred at the US Fifth Fleet headquarters in Bahrain and three bases in Kuwait. The strikes destroyed Patriot missile defense systems in Bahrain and Kuwait, satellite dishes at Bahrain’s naval support base, and THAAD radar systems in Jordan and the United Arab Emirates. In Saudi Arabia, an E-3 Sentry command and control aircraft and a fuel transport plane were also damaged.
The report added that the destruction in Bahrain was so extensive that the Fifth Fleet headquarters was relocated to MacDill Air Force Base in Florida. Some officials fear that US forces may not return to regional bases on a large scale in the near future.
