Satellite Images Reveal Extensive Damage from Iranian Strikes on US Bases in Middle East

New satellite images reveal significant damage caused by Iran's retaliatory missile strikes against US military bases across the Middle East on the night between July 12 and 13, 2026. The attacks targeted key US installations in Jordan, Qatar, and Bahrain, damaging buildings, hangars, warehouses, and critical military infrastructure.

In Jordan, the Prince Hassan Air Base, which hosts US forces, suffered severe damage including the destruction of an aircraft hangar and direct hits to the runway. Similarly, Al Udeid Air Base in Qatar, a major US military hub, was struck, with images showing a damaged hangar and burn marks near US military buildings, indicating a near miss. Bahrain's US Fifth Fleet area also sustained damage to a warehouse, highlighting the widespread impact of the Iranian counterattack.

Concurrently, satellite photos documented damage on the Iranian side, showing a warehouse destroyed at Bandar-e Dayyer Port in Bushehr province due to recent US strikes. Amid these escalations, Iran announced a temporary halt to maritime traffic through the strategic Strait of Hormuz, citing US military activity, and stated that navigation would resume only after stability returns. The US rejected Iran's claim of control over the strait, affirming that maritime movement continues uninterrupted.

These developments underscore the heightened tensions and ongoing military exchanges between Iran and the United States in the region, with both sides sustaining damage to critical infrastructure. The situation remains fluid as regional security concerns intensify.
