MOSCOW (Sputnik) - US buildings and facilities have come under attack in Saudi Arabia, the Press TV broadcaster reported on Thursday.
The Prince Sultan Air Base in eastern Saudi Arabia was targeted by drones, with explosions heard at the site, the broadcaster reported, citing local sources.
The airbase is located in the central province of Al-Kharj, southeast of Riyadh. The main contingent of the US armed forces in Saudi Arabia is stationed there, and it serves as a logistics and operational hub for US military installations in the region.
On February 28, the United States and Israel launched strikes on targets in Iran, including in Tehran, causing damage and civilian casualties. Iran responded by striking Israeli territory and US military facilities in the Middle East.
