Jin10 reported on June 14 that anonymous U.S. defense officials announced that the “Patriot” and “THAAD” missile defense systems, operated by U.S. military personnel and deployed as early as the Biden administration, participated in Israel’s air defense operations. Compared to last year’s extensive involvement of U.S. air and naval forces to assist in intercepting missiles during two retaliatory strikes in Iran, the scale of this operation is noticeably smaller.
