The Pentagon Detailed Damages To Several U.S. Bases In The Middle East. New Photos Show The Extent.

The Pentagon's Inspector General said in a new report that "hundreds of buildings and structures" at U.S. bases in the region have been damaged or destroyed, as well as "dozens" of U.S. aircraft.

Shortly after, CBS News published images showing the extent of some of that destruction. The outlet noted that it got the images from active service members on the condition of anonymity because of media restrictions within the military.

"This is major damage to our bases that hasn't been communicated to the American public," one deployed service member told the outlet. "We're standing there with our eyes closed getting punched in the face."

One of the images shows a destroyed Boeing E-3 Sentry four-engine aircraft at the Prince Sultan Air Force Base in Saudi Arabia. Another one shows destroyed buildings and barracks in Camp Buehring, in Kuwait. Strikes have been reported in Bahrain, Qatar, UAE, Iraq, Oman and Jordan as well. "We're not defending these bases. We're just watching them get destroyed," the service member said.

The report by the Pentagon's Inspector General detailed that equipment losses climbed to about $3.7 billion, including almost 60 aircraft.

The report, sent to Congress, details that, overall, the war in Iran cost more than $33 billion by the end of June. The costs include $184 million in physical damage to U.S. diplomatic facilities in Iraq, Kuwait, Saudi Arabia and the United Arab Emirates.

U.S. actions have also "resulted in strategic inventory shortfalls and revealed industrial base bottlenecks for munitions resupply," the report said.

As a result, the Department of Defense is "working to streamline procurement processes and production lead times, and to stockpile critical materials, components, and selected munitions to respond rapidly to a contingency."

Expenses have increased further ever since, as the U.S. and Iran resumed hostilities in July, just days after signing a Memorandum of Understanding aimed at ending the war and beginning negotiations on Tehran's nuclear program.

Iranian Foreign Minister Abbas Araghchi reacted to the report, saying the figures reported by the Pentagon are "just the tip of the iceberg."

"We'll reveal it all in due course. For those who've sold lies about Iran, it won't be pretty," he added.
