The United States will deploy additional fighter jets and Navy ships to West Asia in order to defend Israel, the US Department of Defence said.
Deputy Pentagon Press Secretary Sabrina Singh on Friday said that the deployment will be in response to threats from Iran and Iranian-backed militias.
Washington is also taking steps to increase its readiness to deploy more land-based ballistic missile defence, Pentagon said.
US Secretary of Defence Lloyd Austin “has ordered additional ballistic missile defence-capable cruisers and destroyers to the US European Command and US Central Command regions,” a statement from the US Department of Defence (DOD) read.
The Pentagon is also “taking steps to increase our [US] readiness to deploy additional land-based ballistic missile defence.
The US defence chief has ordered more fighters to West Asia, the Pentagon added.
Deputy Pentagon Press Secretary Singh said on Friday that the commitment for more defence capabilities in the region comes from conversations last night between President Joe Biden and Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu.
