Greece has relocated its Patriot anti-aircraft missile system from Karpathos to Crete, aiming to protect the critical infrastructure of Souda Bay. This move comes in response to increased threats from Iran, which has ballistic missiles capable of reaching targets in southeastern Europe. The relocation began on August 23, 2026, and involves the transfer of the system, its equipment, and personnel. Greece is also considering providing air defense support to Bulgaria if requested.
