NBC News reports that Iranian F-5 fighter jets successfully attacked a U.S. military base in Kuwait, causing extensive damage, with the aircraft returning safely to their bases. The report, citing newly disclosed Pentagon data shared with U.S. officials, confirms the strike occurred during the early days of the ongoing conflict. This incident highlights the vulnerability of U.S. air defenses in the region to low-tech, manned aircraft. The attack inflicted significant damage on the base, though the Pentagon has previously downplayed the extent of the destruction.
