Associated Press: The United States has withdrawn its missile defense systems from Saudi Arabia.
The Associated Press analyzed a satellite image and reported that the United States had withdrawn its most advanced missile defense system and Patriot system from Saudi air base.
According to satellite images analyzed by the Associated Press, the United States has in recent weeks intensified its Yemeni drone operation against Saudi targets, one of the most advanced missile defense systems in the world, according to the Associated Press. It has also removed Patriot systems from Saudi Arabia.
The Associated Press reports that a satellite image taken by Planet Labs, a US private equity firm, reports that the image was taken from an area of Prince Sultan Air Base in Saudi Arabia that once had Patriot missile defense systems with advanced anti-missile systems. Todd was stationed there and vacated on Friday, September 10, 2021.
The Associated Press reports that the United States has withdrawn its most advanced Patriot missile defense and missile defense systems from Saudi Arabia in recent weeks.
The Washington Post reported that the transfer of US missile defense systems from Prince Sultan Air Base outside Riyadh came as US Arab allies on the Persian Gulf watched the tumultuous withdrawal of US troops from Afghanistan with anger and concern.
According to the report, Prince Sultan Air Base, located 115 km southeast of Riyadh, has hosted several thousand US troops since 2019.
According to the report, a satellite image that was viewed by the Associated Press in late August (last month) showed that some US missile defense systems had left the area of Prince Sultan Air Base. Cars were still seen at the scene.
However, a new high-resolution satellite imagery taken on Friday shows the US missile defense launcher was empty at the site and no noticeable activity was observed.
