[U.S. analysis report says Iranian attacks caused serious losses to U.S. military bases in the Middle East] Nov. 1. The U.S. released an analysis report on October 31 saying that as of the end of August, attacks claimed by Iran or Iranian-backed militia groups had damaged or destroyed 26 U.S. military bases and facilities deploying U.S. military equipment in the Middle East. From April 1 to June 30 alone, Iranian attacks damaged or destroyed hundreds of buildings and other facilities in U.S. military bases. The analysis found that Iran initially focused on attacking U.S. military aircraft hangars and early warning systems used to detect incoming missiles and drones, and later expanded its attack targets, causing billions of dollars in equipment losses. Continuous attacks have changed the deployment of the US military in the Middle East. Two officials revealed that the US military has withdrawn many military assets from the Persian Gulf. Related losses have also raised questions about the US military's regional defense capabilities. The report also pointed out that Trump is considering launching a new round of strikes after the mid-term elections, and Iran has warned of severe retaliation; if it returns to hostilities, it may cause more costly damage to US military bases, further exacerbating uncertainty.
