the commander of the United States Central Command arrived in Israel today, Thursday, as part of efforts to consult and coordinate with Israeli authorities regarding escalating regional tensions.
According to informed sources, General Michael Eric Kurilla, commander of the United States Central Command, arrived in Tel Aviv today, where he is scheduled to hold discussions with senior Israeli officials, including Minister of Defense Yoav Galant and Chief of Staff Aviv Kochavi.
This visit comes amidst escalating tensions between Israel and Iran, especially following the attack targeting the Iranian consulate in Damascus. Despite assurances from Israeli authorities that they are prepared to confront any threats, this visit aims to enhance cooperation and coordination between the United States and Israel in addressing security challenges in the region.
On the other hand, Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu affirmed the continued confrontation of the occupation against threats in Gaza and other areas, emphasizing readiness to defend the state and respond firmly to any challenge it faces, whether defensively or offensively.
This comes in the context of increasing regional tensions, which call for enhanced international cooperation and security coordination to confront common challenges in the Middle East.
