🚨🇸🇦 BREAKING: Saudi Arabia REJECTS Israel’s request to transfer its THAAD missile defense system to Tel Aviv 🇮🇱

This comes amid escalating #Houthi missile strikes targeting Israeli territory and the Red Sea shipping lane.

🔍 Context:

Saudi just activated its first THAAD system on July 1st.

The US-made defense system is part of a $15B arms deal.

Israel sought the system after its own interceptors struggled to counter Houthi threats.

⚠️ Implication: Saudi’s refusal signals ongoing limits in regional defense cooperation—especially with no formal diplomatic ties between the two.

💥 Meanwhile, Israel continues launching retaliatory strikes on Houthi-controlled areas in Yemen.

🚨 Update: US military reports using 93 THAAD interceptors over 11 days to defend Israel from Iranian missile attacks—costing an estimated $1.2 billion.

💥 Iran launched a barrage of ballistic and hypersonic missiles, prompting use of Israel’s Arrow system and US assets.

🌍 This rapid consumption—the equivalent of 15–20% of US THAAD inventory—highlights the steep cost and supply strain, as annual THAAD production is just 50–60 missiles.
