President Trump confirmed that a military base in Saudi Arabia was attacked but claimed that American aircraft there were not damaged.

On Saturday, President Donald Trump affirmed that a military base in Saudi Arabia had recently been targeted in an Iranian attack, but he denied any damage to the U.S. planes stationed there. He took to his social media platform, Truth Social, to counter media reports stating that five refueling aircraft had been destroyed or rendered inoperable at the airport in Saudi Arabia. Trump insisted that four out of the five aircraft suffered almost no damage and have returned to service, while the fifth was slightly damaged but could return to flight soon.
