On the 29th day of the war, Iran accurately bombed 500 US military hiding spots for the first time, ambulances were busy for several hours, and are still in emergency rescue! Iran disclosed extremely severe casualties
On March 28, 2026, a huge incident broke out in the Middle East, just 29 days into the military actions by the US and Israel against Iran, Iran did something that surprised the whole world, directly launching a precision bombing against two secret US military strongholds in Dubai. This was the first time during the prolonged conflict that Iran had taken such a direct and ruthless action against the core hiding points of the US military.
Friends who often watch international news know that the US military has been rampant in the Middle East for many years, always boasting about its intelligence system, claiming that there is no blind spot in global surveillance, with satellites watching 24 hours a day, and air defense systems deployed densely across various regions. They would say that even if a missile were aimed at them, or even a strange aircraft approached their territory, they could detect it half a day in advance and prepare defenses early.
But this time, Iran's Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps directly grasped the location of their hideouts in Dubai clearly, even knowing exactly how many people were hidden in each of the two strongholds: one had over 400 people, and the other over 100, totaling more than 500 US military personnel, all without a hint of wind leaking out, thus being firmly locked onto the target by Iran.
Speaking of which, the US military hiding in Dubai was also due to being scared by Iran's previous continuous strikes.
In the nearly month since the war began, Iran has not stopped its counterattacks on US military bases in the Middle East. The US military's visible bases have been attacked one after another. They felt that conventional bases were too conspicuous and unsafe, which led them to think of sneaky ideas, secretly withdrawing large numbers of personnel from regular military bases and hiding them in secret strongholds in places like Dubai.
They surely thought they had it all figured out, believing that Dubai is not a conflict zone and is renowned as a financial center in the Middle East, with many people and distractions. Even if Iran is tough, they wouldn’t dare to act casually in such a place, let alone find out where they were hiding. They practically treated it as a fail-safe safe haven.
However, the US military's calculations failed to account for the fact that Iran does not buy this at all, nor did they realize that their hiding plan had long been thoroughly uncovered by Iran.
This time, Iran was not acting on a whim. After a long period of careful reconnaissance, they understood the specific locations, personnel scale, and even the identities of the people inside those two strongholds before decisively launching their attack.
In the operation, Iran directly deployed precision-guided missiles, along with drones coordinating the attack, simultaneously striking the two locked targets with speed, accuracy, and ferocity, leaving no time for the US military to respond or react.
Imagine, over 500 people squeezed into two concealed strongholds, facing a sudden precision bombing. Forget about organizing any defense; they didn’t even have time for emergency evacuation. The moment the bombs landed, chaos erupted on the scene.
The official spokesperson for the Iranian armed forces also publicly announced the situation of this operation, clearly stating that this strike caused extremely severe casualties to the US military. The two strongholds not only housed ordinary US soldiers but also many commanders responsible for military operations in the Middle East.
After the bombing ended, local ambulances did not stop for several hours, continuously rushing to the scene to transport the injured and dead to hospitals. They worked tirelessly for several hours and were still engaged in emergency rescue efforts. Just by looking at this scene, one can understand how severe the losses for the US military really were.
The most interesting aspect of this incident is the stark contrast of the US military before and after.
Usually, in front of the world, the US military always maintains the posture of being the world's number one military power, showcasing their strength wherever they go, and constantly boasting about their intelligence and defense capabilities.
Yet this time, Iran directly located their carefully hidden secret hideout, catching them and their personnel off guard, with absolutely no advance warning and no substantial responses afterward. They only dared to post a dry statement on social media saying that no US military personnel were attacked in Dubai.
This statement, not only military observers from various countries but even ordinary citizens, can tell how much exaggeration is contained within.
It’s important to note that this was not an ordinary small-scale conflict. Since the war began 29 days ago, although Iran and the US military have had confrontations, most of them were sporadic skirmishes in regions like Syria and Iraq, either targeting the US military's conventional bases or localized fire exchanges. Never before had there been such a large-scale precision strike directly targeting a gathering point for US personnel that had been secretly relocated in a non-conflict zone like Dubai, affecting over 500 targets in one fell swoop.
This was equivalent to Iran slapping the US military in the face, clearly telling America, don’t think you are safe just because you hide in a third country. As long as you are still thinking of targeting Iran, no matter where you hide in the Middle East, Iran can find you and can strike you accurately.
Once this incident broke out, the entire situation in the Middle East suddenly tightened.
Previously, many of the US military's allies in the Middle East lived off the protection of the US military. Now, even the US personnel hiding in Dubai cannot be kept safe, being bombed by Iran at will. These countries must surely have doubts; if the US military cannot even secure its own safety, how can it protect us? Not to mention that after this operation, Iran issued a warning to regional countries, urging those that allow the US and Israel to launch wars from their territories to cease immediately, or Iran would retaliate forcefully.
Now that this matter has just come to light, Iran has clearly laid out the details of the operation, the targets struck, and the results achieved, while the US military has only issued a simple denial without providing any substantial evidence to counter it.
What the US military will do next is uncertain; whether they will swallow this loss silently or retaliate against Iran with a larger-scale response is still unknown.
But it is certain that after this incident, the deterrence the US military has maintained in the Middle East for so many years will undoubtedly be greatly diminished, and this already turbulent situation in the Middle East will only become more chaotic.
