Iranian Missile Strike Damages US Refueling Aircraft at Saudi Base

The Wall Street Journal ki report ke mutabiq 13 March 2026 ko Iran ke missile strike mein Saudi Arabia ke Prince Sultan Air Base par khade 5 US refueling aircraft damage ho gaye. Ye aircraft United States Air Force ke tanker planes the jo fighter jets ko hawa mein fuel supply karte hain.

Reports ke mutabiq planes completely destroy nahi hue lekin unhe serious damage hua hai aur ab unki repair chal rahi hai. Is attack mein kisi personnel ki death report nahi hui hai.

Is incident se pehle ek KC-135 Stratotanker Iraq mein crash bhi hua tha, jisse aerial refueling fleet par pressure badh gaya hai.

Military analysts ke mutabiq tanker aircraft long-range air operations ke liye bahut zaroori hote hain, isliye un par hamla strategic impact daal sakta hai.

Experts ka kehna hai ki West Asia conflict ke badhte tensions global energy markets aur international security situation par bhi asar daal sakte hain.
