🇺🇸🇮🇱 Second US THAAD air defense system reportedly arrives in Israel amid rising tensions with Iran
The United States has deployed a second THAAD (Terminal High Altitude Area Defense) air defense system in Israel, primarily in response to the growing threat from Iran. Tensions have escalated due to Iran's military activities in the region and its continued support for proxy forces like Hezbollah. The THAAD system, capable of intercepting ballistic missiles, offers an additional layer of defense against potential Iranian missile strikes, which are viewed as one of the most significant threats to Israel's national security.
This move is part of broader defensive measures aimed at countering Iran's expanding influence and military capabilities in the region.
