The Pentagon announced Sunday it will station a United States Army Terminal High Altitude Area Defense battery in Israel to assist the Jewish state in defending against missile intrusions.
U.S. military spokesperson Gen. Pay Ryder released a weekend statement confirming the positioning of the advanced weapons system, along with the personnel to operate it, “underscores the United States’ ironclad commitment to the defense of Israel and to defend Americans in Israel from any further ballistic missile attacks by Iran.”
