From Lawrence O’Donnel's report -

It is standard protocol for noncombatant family members to be evacuated from a war zone before a planned attack. In trump's war, that was not done.

"They knew something was going on, and they literally left us there as sitting ducks."

The night of the attack was a terrifying experience for spouses and children.

Many of families are now living in limbo ever since their hasty departure from Bahrain, under financial duress.
