Multiple A-10 attack aircraft from the Idaho Air National Guard deployed to the Middle East over the weekend.

Axar.az reports citing Air and Space Forces Magazine, more than 300 Airmen from the 124th Fighter Wing, along with the attack aircraft, were sent to southwest Asia within U.S. Central Command’s area of responsibility on March 29.

The move comes just two days after the Air Force confirmed the arrival of “a number of” B-2 stealth bombers on the island of Diego Garcia, which is within striking distance of Yemen, where the U.S. has launched a renewed campaign against the Houthis.

“The 124th has a legacy of service to our state and nation, and this mission further cements our commitment to protecting the United States of America and securing our interests around the globe,” Maj. Gen. Tim Donnellan, adjutant general of Idaho and commander of the Idaho National Guard, said in a release. “Readiness and relevance are our strengths, whether performing our state mission here at home or our federal mission abroad.”
