A major revelation has emerged from the Middle East. Israel has officially confirmed for the first time that it deployed an Iron Dome air defense battery to the United Arab Emirates during the conflict with Iran. Israeli Transportation Minister Miri Regev said the deployment was made to help counter the growing threat posed by Iranian ballistic missiles. While this is the first public confirmation by an Israeli official, U.S. Ambassador to Israel Mike Huckabee had previously acknowledged the deployment, and Axios had earlier reported that Israeli troops were also sent to operate the system.
