US Reduces Fuel‑Truck Aircraft at Ben‑Gurion Airport
An Israeli TV channel reported that the number of US fuel‑truck aircraft at Ben‑Gurion Airport has fallen to its lowest level since the cease‑fire began. The base, which once hosted about twenty planes, is now seeing a sharp reduction.
Operation details
Channel 12 stated that American forces continue to cut back their aerial presence at the Tel Aviv‑area airport, reflecting a strategic shift in logistical support during the calm period. No exact figures were released, but the cut is estimated to be close to 50%.
Conflict background
Ben‑Gurion has been a key hub for fueling Israeli forces, with US aircraft playing a major role in supply missions. The reduction aligns with diplomatic moves to ease tensions after the cease‑fire agreement.
Observers will watch whether the drawdown persists after the truce and how it might affect Israel’s logistical capabilities.
