Satellite imagery dated July 24, 2026 (2 Mordad 1405) indicates that Al Dhafra Air Base in the United Arab Emirates has been completely cleared of U.S. military aircraft.
Sentinel-2 satellite images captured on July 24, 2026, show that Al Dhafra Air Base, which the report describes as a launch point for military operations against Iran, is now entirely devoid of U.S. aircraft.
This comes after approximately five fighter jets were reportedly stationed at the base on July 22, 2026 (30 Tir 1405). The number of aircraft at Al Udeid Air Base in Qatar has also reportedly dropped to zero since July 17, 2026 (26 Tir 1405).
The report further claims that during Iranian missile and drone strikes, the base lost four aircraft shelters and ammunition storage facilities, significantly reducing its operational capability.
