Iranian Ballistic Missiles Strike Saudi Arabia's Prince Sultan Air Base, a Major US Military Hub

Iran's IRGC targeted Prince Sultan Air Base, located approximately 60 km south of Riyadh and home to more than 2,300 US troops, Patriot batteries, and THAAD systems, with ballistic missiles and drones. Saudi Arabia's Foreign Ministry confirmed attacks on Riyadh and the Eastern Province were intercepted, called them aggressive and unjustifiable, and said the kingdom reserves the right to respond.
