U.S. military planes are landing in swarms in Israel. In the past 24 hours, nine American military transport aircraft have landed in the country.
On Thursday (April 18), Turkish news agency Anadolu Agency reported the information citing Israel’s public broadcaster, Kan.
According to the report, the aircraft landed at an Israeli airbase near Tel Aviv. Each plane was loaded with bunker buster bombs.
Kan reported that the Nevatim Airbase is located near central Israel’s Tel Aviv. All nine American transport planes landed there, carrying bunker buster bombs and other defensive weapons.
The sudden influx of U.S. military aircraft loaded with bombs has sparked speculation. It is believed that if nuclear negotiations between Tehran and Washington fail, the U.S. and Israel might launch a joint strike. The bombs are possibly being stockpiled in preparation for that scenario. However, the United States has not yet made any official comment on the matter.
