According to Israeli media outlet Kann, the United States has launched a large-scale airlift operation to the Middle East and Israel in the past 24 hours, reminiscent of the events leading up to Operation Epic Fury. At least 10 US military transport planes landed at two air bases in southern Israel—Ovda and Nevatim. Some of these planes originated from Fort Bliss, Texas, a key US military air defense equipment deployment and support center, handling everything from interceptors to air defense missile systems. This move suggests that the US may be replenishing Israel's air defense weapons inventory, and may even be delivering additional air defense missile systems, such as the Patriot air defense system. This US airlift operation also includes transport planes bound for other Middle Eastern countries. In the past few hours, US military transport planes have landed at military bases in Jordan, Saudi Arabia, and Qatar.
