There were Russians at the base that the US struck Thursday night, a US defense official. It was not said what the Russians’ role was at the base. In addition, according to the official, the US had multiple conversations with the Russians today to warn them of the coming attack.

A second image of bomb damage craters at the airbase was also shown to reporters at the Pentagon.
