Reuters: A Patriot interceptor missile involved in a March 9 explosion in Bahrain was likely launched from a U.S.-operated battery, according to analysis by Middlebury Institute researchers.

The research was conducted by Sam Lair, Michael Duitsman, and Professor Jeffrey Lewis of the Middlebury Institute of International Studies in Monterey, California.
The data reveals “with moderate-to-high confidence that the suspect missile was likely launched from a US Patriot battery located about four miles to the southwest of the Mahazza neighborhood.”
Wes Bryant, a former senior targeting advisor and policy analyst at the Pentagon, told Reuters the research’s conclusions were “pretty undeniable.”
