Israel and a group of Arab states have intensified direct, closed-door consultations to establish a joint regional defense system aimed at countering Tehran. This collaboration includes governments with which Israel does not yet have official diplomatic ties, according to Channel 14. The initiative, supported by the United States, builds upon a recent secret meeting of ten nations in Abu Dhabi.
The regional cooperation is proceeding on two fronts: bilateral meetings between military and intelligence officials, and a permanent multilateral consultative body involving U.S. representatives. Delegations from Saudi Arabia, the UAE, Kuwait, Bahrain, and Libya have participated in this body, focusing on de-escalating potential crises and coordinating future actions. These Arab capitals are demanding direct involvement in global policy regarding Iran.
The coalition has outlined specific conditions for the White House, including the complete removal of Iran's enriched uranium reserves, reliable guarantees against ballistic missile and drone attacks, and the preservation of free navigation through the Strait of Hormuz. U.S. representatives have conveyed this unified position to President Donald Trump. Concurrently, military staffs are developing operational plans for large-scale crises, assessing risks such as long-range Iranian missile strikes on European targets and potential ground incursions into Kuwait by allied forces. The regional allies continue to coordinate responses to emerging threats.
