Russian satellite data helped Iran strike U.S. air base in Saudi Arabia — CNN
Fourteen Russian reconnaissance satellites passed over a U.S. military base in Saudi Arabia in the days before Iran attacked it on March 27, according to an investigation CNN published on Sept. 16.
U.S. troops have captured images showing substantial damage to American military bases in the Middle East following Iranian strikes, according to CBS News. The undated photographs, taken at a Saudi Arabian base and two facilities in Kuwait, were shared with the outlet by anonymous American personnel due to military restrictions.
A service member quoted by CBS stated that the extent of the damage is unprecedented and has not been publicly disclosed. The personnel described their bases as being "punched in the face" by the force of the attacks.
The Pentagon's inspector general released a report earlier this week indicating that CENTCOM had reported extensive damage to U.S. facilities and equipment across several Middle Eastern nations, including Kuwait, Bahrain, Qatar, UAE, Saudi Arabia, Iraq, and Oman. CENTCOM confirmed that the Iranian strikes caused and destroyed hundreds of buildings and structures at these bases.
