🇮🇶❌️🇮🇱 — Satellite imagery has documented the dried-up lake in the Al-Nukhaib desert, where the Israeli army constructed a temporary airstrip approximately 1.7 km long, located 44 km south of Al-Nukhaib and 70 km from the Iraqi-Saudi border.

31.66697°N, 42.44864°E

According to satellite imagery and mapping websites that tracked the location, the airstrip first became clearly visible on June 3rd, suggesting it was constructed between June 1st and 6th.
