US Deploys 12 F-22 Jets to Middle East Amid Rising Tensions
Aug 8, 2024, 04:29 PM
The United States has deployed 12 advanced F-22 stealth fighter jets to the Middle East as tensions escalate in the region. This move is part of a broader effort by the US to deter potential aggression from Iran and its proxies against Israel. The deployment follows the assassination of a top Hamas leader, which has heightened concerns of an attack on Israel. The US is also working to revive a multinational coalition to support Israel's defense. The F-22 jets initially landed in the UK before arriving in the Middle East. The arrival of the F-22s underscores the US's commitment to Israel's security, as highlighted by a recent briefing between the US Secretary of Defense and Israeli Minister of Defense Gallant.
