•Attacks resulted in the deaths of seven US service members, including six at Shuaiba port in Kuwait and one at a US base in Saudi Arabia.
•Financial damage is extensive, with a single strike on the US Navy's Fifth Fleet HQ costing $200 million and critical THAAD radar units valued at up to $500 million.
