Pentagon agrees to host Qatari F-15 fighter jets and pilots at Idaho air base

Secretary of War Pete Hegseth announced Friday that the Pentagon has agreed to host a new Qatari air force facility in Idaho, saying that the nation has played a "core part" in securing the Gaza peace deal.

"Today, we’re announcing a letter of acceptance in building a Qatari Emiri Air Force facility at the Mountain Home Air Force Base in Idaho," Hegseth said.

The facility will train Qatari pilots in how to fly F-15 fighter jets.
