A major airlift by the U.S. Air Force’s Air Mobility Command (AMC) appears to be ongoing between Osan Air Base in South Korea and Isa Air Base in Bahrain; with several C-17s over the last few days observed flying between the bases, likely transporting MIM-104 “Patriot” surface-to-air missile batteries as well as other air-defense systems and munitions to U.S. Central Command (CENTCOM). Only just yesterday, Iran threatened to attack the U.S-U.K joint base at Diego Garcia in the Indian Ocean, as well as military bases in Turkey and Middle East, if the United States launches an attack against Iran.
