The United States has deployed its advanced THAAD anti-missile defense system to Israel, with reports indicating that three THAAD batteries are now operational in the country as of October 20. Over the past week, more than 22 U.S. Air Force C-17 Globemaster transport planes have delivered military equipment, including the THAAD system and other military aid, to Israel's Nevatim Air Base. U.S. military convoys, transporting elements of the THAAD air defense battery, have been spotted moving through Israel, including near Beersheba and Tel Aviv. U.S. Defense Secretary Lloyd Austin confirmed that the THAAD system is "in place" in Israel, enhancing the nation's defense capabilities amid heightened regional tensions.
