US media is now reporting that at least 12 American soldiers were injured in the Iranian strike on Saudi Arabia's Prince Sultan Airbase, an increase on the 10 we reported earlier, according to the BBC's news partner CBS.
At least two of the soldiers have been "very seriously injured", with the Wall Street Journal reporting that they were inside a building at the base when it was struck.
The attack included at least one missile and several drones, and several aerial refuelling planes have also suffered damage, unnamed sources told the New York Times and Wall Street Journal.
The Pentagon and US Central Command had not responded to media outlets' requests for comment at the time of reporting.
