Officials in Idaho held a press conference to address questions or concerns about last week's announcement of a new Qatar Emiri Air Force training facility in Mountain Home, Idaho — about 40 miles southeast of Boise.

The U.S. Defense Department announced the establishment of the facility Friday, with Qatar expected to bring 12 jets to the Idaho town under a partnership similar to the existing arrangement with the Singaporean Air Force.
"This is more than just an expansion of operations at our base. This international partnership presents a milestone for Mountain Home," Rich Sykes, Mountain Home Mayor, said during the press conference.
