US air defense shipment arrives in Israel

A US-contracted Boeing 747-400 cargo plane operated by Atlas Air has landed at Israel's Nevatim Air Base, delivering a shipment of air defense systems and interceptor missiles. The aircraft originated from Kunsan Air Base in South Korea, making stops in Alaska and Sofia, Bulgaria, before arriving in Israel. The delivery comes amid reports that Israel's strategic reserves of interceptor missiles have been depleted to critical levels following recent conflicts with Iran. US and Israeli movements suggest both nations are preparing for a potential new round of confrontation with Iran.
