The Romanian airbase played a crucial role in the logistics of Operation Midnight Hammer, with frequent flights by US and NATO aircraft.

Romania's Mihail Kogălniceanu airbase was instrumental in supporting Operation Midnight Hammer, which targeted Iranian nuclear facilities. Since mid-June, activity at the base has increased significantly, with frequent flights by US planes and transfers of equipment from the US. The base, initially a temporary facility, is becoming one of the largest NATO military bases in Europe, underlining Romania's strategic importance in the context of tensions in the Middle East.
