(Just today 4 to Muwaffaq and one interesting one from Balad Air Base in Iraq to Al Salem AB in Kuwait, and then back to Ramstein. And there are 3 MQ-4C long-range naval surveillance drones at Al Dhafra Air Base in Abu Dhabi UAE. There are rumors that the United States is moving Patriot and THAAD anti-aircraft/missile batteries to the region.
