The idea of a Middle East Air Defense has been the talk of the town in recent weeks, leading up to US President Joe Biden’s visit to Israel and Saudi Arabia.

The “MEAD,” as Defense Minister Benny Gantz calls it, has already been operational and has successfully intercepted aerial threats.

The alliance has reportedly brought together Israel and Arab states in the Middle East around a shared table in order to defend their countries from Iran and its proxies, which have increased their attacks, some of them deadly, in recent years.
