"Tonight I personally followed, with the utmost attention and in contact with the Chief of the Defense Staff, Gen. Luciano Portolano, the evolution of the situation in Saudi Arabia, and in particular at the Taif air base, which was the target of several attacks and where Italian personnel are present as part of Operation Inherent Resolve. No Italian military personnel were involved,"

“An Italian F-2000 aircraft was hit; it was inside the base, in an outlying area. There is no other damage to vehicles or infrastructure used by our personnel.”
