About this listen

The Khobar Towers bombing was a terrorist attack that occurred on June 25, 1996, in Khobar, Saudi Arabia. A truck bomb detonated near the Khobar Towers housing complex, killing 19 U.S. service members and injuring hundreds more. The complex housed coalition forces, primarily U.S. Air Force personnel, involved in Operation Southern Watch, a no-fly zone operation in southern Iraq. The bomb was detonated adjacent to Building #131, an eight-story structure housing members of the U.S. Air Force's 4404th Wing (Provisional), primarily from a deployed rescue squadron and deployed fighter squadron.
