  • US fighter jets deployed to Israel amid Iran tensions.
  • Security sources deny escalation fears as reason for deployment.
  • Former President Trump says military strike on Iran is considered.
  • Iran would likely target US bases before Israel if attacked.
  • Squadron placement raises questions about strategic priorities.

Two squadrons of U.S. Air Force fighter jets have arrived in Israel. Security sources, however, state that their deployment does not indicate concerns about an escalation with Iran. This comes as former President Donald Trump commented that the scenario of a military strike against Iran is still being considered.

An assessment suggests that if the U.S. were to strike Iran, Iran's initial response would target American bases in the region, rather than immediately involving Israel in a conflict. The article questions the strategic placement of these squadrons, noting that they are not stationed in Qatar, which hosts the largest U.S. military base outside the United States.
