The @MenchOsint X account says a U.S. Air Force C-17A (registration 07-7170, callsign RCH4150) is due to land in the UAE, possibly carrying the CENTCOM commander, after departing MacDill AFB, Tampa. A later repost of the account's earlier report says the commander landed three days before the report, then visited an aircraft carrier by MV-22B Osprey from Al Dhafra Air Base; no other source appears in the claims.
