    US Deploys Patriot Battery to Israel Amid Iran Tensions

    The Pentagon has begun transporting a Patriot missile battery from Texas to Israel, aiming to bolster Israel's air defense capabilities amidst escalating tensions with Iran. This move comes as the US warns its allies in the Persian Gulf about a potential short but intense military campaign against Iran following the US midterm elections in early November. The US has significantly depleted its stockpile of Patriot interceptors, with estimates suggesting that between 1,060 and 1,430 missiles were used in the first 39 days of combat operations, corresponding to 45 to 61 percent of pre-war stocks. Restocking these supplies is complicated by limited production capacity, with shortages expected to persist until 2030.
