Iran allegedly bombed a U.S. military base, but the U.S. military says no one was hurt?
On April 1, Iran's Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps announced that its strikes on the Saudi (Al-Harq) Prince Sultan Air Base at the end of March resulted in casualties among 200 U.S. soldiers, most of whom were pilots or U.S. Air Force personnel.
From satellite images released by Iran, it appears the Revolutionary Guard likely used some type of heavy missile to attack the U.S. base, with one building nearly completely flattened—analysis suggests this structure may have been a U.S. military assembly point.
However, the U.S. Central Command's response to this strike remains a denial, stating that no personnel suffered the severe damage claimed by Iran—though notably, the U.S. military command only rejected the claim of "200 casualties" and did not challenge the authenticity of the satellite photos released by Iran.
In the comments section, many foreign internet users mocked the U.S. Central Command's statement. One user remarked that the claim from the U.S. Central Command—that "the Iranian military is suffering massive setbacks"—has been repeated for three consecutive weeks, yet Iran still has the capability to launch attacks. So, who is lying?
