A recent Iranian assault on a military installation in Saudi Arabia has reportedly left ten American service members injured, according to sources.

The Wall Street Journal, referencing both U.S. and Arab officials, noted that two of the injured individuals are in serious condition.

The attack targeted the Prince Sultan Air Base with at least one missile and several drones, the officials stated.

The injured personnel were inside a building that sustained a direct hit during the incident.

In addition to the casualties, the attack resulted in damage to multiple U.S. refueling aircraft stationed at the base.

However, US military officials maintain Iran’s drone and missile launch rates are down by more than 90%. 

Since the start of Operation Epic Fury on Feb. 28, about 303 US service members have been wounded and at least 13 killed, according to CENTCOM. 

“The vast majority of these injuries have been minor,” Navy Captain Tim Hawkins said Friday, “and 273 troops have returned to duty.”
