Ten U.S. service members were injured in an attack on Prince Sultan Air Base in Saudi Arabia, according to multiple U.S. officials.

The attack consisted of Iranian missiles and drones, sources told CBS News.

Two of the Americans were very seriously injured, sources said. Eight were seriously injured, which is a different category of injury under the military's classification system.

More than 300 American service members have been wounded in action as part of the U.S.'s war with Iran, most of whom have returned to duty, a U.S. Central Command spokesperson said Friday.

We’re fighting against pirates.

Have been since Jimmy Carter failed to get our embassy back.

The time has come to destroy Iran.

It’s long overdue.

Did we learn nothing from “bombing pauses” in Vietnam? They were always seen as weakness by the enemy.

For the second time in 2 weeks, the Potomac TRACON has been evacuated to "ATC ZERO," effectively halting air traffic to DC's three major airports DCA, IAD and BWI. Two sources tell @CBSNews this is due to the similar odor issue (a chemical burning smell).

I thought the war was over and Iran ran out of missiles?

This hit was only possible due to targeting info provided by Russia.

I’m pretty sure there are at least a few people in Iran who have access to Google Earth.

I’ll wait while you find a quote where Trump said that. I believe it was around 90% of their missile launchers were destroyed.

Great idea! 200 dollar oil sounds awesome for the midterms!

Any other great ideas?

What’s your brilliant idea then? Do Nothing? Bend over for them? Come on, smarta*s, what do you got (besides a micro-P)? Or is the only thing you can actually do is troll?

It shows that even though Trump says that Iran is decimated, they still have enough capability of hitting Saudi Arabia and Israel with missiles

$200 oil equates to $10 gas in the Midwest. This will guarantee a dem massacre in the HOR.

the majority of the media is rooting for the Iranian regime, why, simple..#1 because they hate America, I mean they HATE AMERICA, PERIOD..and secondly, they hate Donald Trump, so whatever he does they have to be against, I guarantee you if Nikki Haley or Kamala Harris did this same strike, the ENTIRE media would be in favor of it and if you disagreed with it you would be called a traitor
