US bases across the Middle East have been struck by Iran as the regime continues to furiously target the region in retaliation for the killing of Ayatollah Ali Khamenei.
The Islamic Republic has unleashed a barrage of missiles and drones at American military bases, air defence facilities and embassies, with seven US troops killed and around 150 injured as the conflict enters its twelfth day.
At least 17 bases and military installations used by the US have been damaged by Iran as Donald Trump threatens to hit back with ‘death, fire and fury’.
These include Al Udeid Air Base in Qatar, the biggest site in the region and home to around 10,000 troops, and Port Shuaiba in Kuwait, where six US soldiers were killed after a drone evaded air defence systems, hitting a command centre.
Al Udeid Air Base, Al Dhafra Air Base, Ali Al Salem Air Base, Camp Buehring and the Navy’s Fifth Fleet headquarters have been hit on multiple occasions.

And debris can be seen scattered across Al Dhafra Air Base in the UAE and Naval Support Activity Bahrain, home to the United States Fifth Fleet.
The intensity and breadth of Iranian strikes has indicated the regime was better prepared for war than the US expected, military officials have claimed.
Embassies and consulates in Kuwait, Saudi Arabia and Dubai have also been targeted.
