Several US troops were injured in an Iranian strike on their facility in Jordan, multiple unnamed US officials told CBS News. The sources, who spoke on the condition of anonymity, did not offer further details, though they stated that no fatalities were recorded among US or Jordanian military personnel so far. Iranian forces repeatedly targeted US forces in Jordan, as hostilities with Washington appeared to escalate further.
NN: Don’t kid your self drones are kicking the shit out of US bases. The days of planes parked outside and troops living in quasit huts are over. Its cave dweller time bases built deep unground.
Iran claims another hit on US airbase in Jordan
Iran’s Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC) confirmed in a statement on Saturday that it once again targeted the United States Al-Azraq airbase, situated in Jordan, with missiles and drones. The Iranian army insisted that the strike “completely” wrecked at least two US fighter aircraft, while also causing “significant” damage to several others. Addressing the Jordanian army directly, Iran’s military said that it has to “eliminate [the US presence in the country] by any means necessary and to cleanse the sacred land of Jordan of these killers of innocent Muslims.”
IDF: US refueling jets to be stationed at airbases
The Israel Defense Forces (IDF) confirmed on Saturday that additional US military refueling aircraft will arrive in Israel and be stationed at air force bases rather than at Ben Gurion Airport, due to concerns about severe airport congestion. According to Israeli outlet Ynet News, more than 60 American refueling planes have arrived in Israel so far, including 33 that were parked at the country’s main international airport.
NN; Its not just refueling aircraft. All the US bases in the gulf are being evacuated and being moved to Israel where distance and Israel’s 3 layers missal and defensenice shields are better able to protect them. And yes Israel has underground Hangers. Something about defending ones self from 20 years of constant rocket and drone attacks makes you good at it.
