New photos obtained by CBS News reveal widespread damage at U.S. military bases in the Middle East, caused by Iranian missile and drone attacks. The images, shared anonymously by active service members, show destruction at multiple locations, including Prince Sultan Air Force Base in Saudi Arabia and Camp Buehring in Kuwait. One image shows a Boeing E-3 Sentry, a military surveillance aircraft, with its tail completely severed from the fuselage, indicating a direct hit. Other photos depict damaged buildings and barracks at Prince Sultan Air Force Base, with some structures standing next to undamaged "T-wall" fortifications—temporary barriers used for basic protection. The Defense Department’s inspector general recently released a report detailing the extent of the damage, estimating equipment losses worth up to $3.7 billion. This includes nearly 60 aircraft and damage to U.S. bases in several countries across the Middle East, including Kuwait, Bahrain, Qatar, the United Arab Emirates, Saudi Arabia, Iraq, Oman, and Jordan. The report underscores the broad reach of Iranian attacks, which have targeted U.S. military installations across the region. A service member who viewed the images described the damage as significant, stating that U.S. bases are not being adequately defended against such threats. The concern highlights ongoing security challenges for U.S. forces operating in the volatile Middle East. The Pentagon has not yet responded to requests for comment on the extent of the damage or the adequacy of current defenses. The attacks and their aftermath raise questions about the effectiveness of U.S. military preparedness in the region. With Iran continuing to use advanced drone and missile technology, the vulnerability of U.S. bases remains a critical issue for both military planners and policymakers. The situation underscores the complex and evolving nature of modern warfare, where traditional defenses may struggle to keep pace with emerging threats.
