The Israeli Air Force announced that Squadron 190, known as the "Magic Touch" squadron, will be relocating from Ramon Airbase in the Negev desert to Ramat David Airbase in northern Israel. This move is scheduled for the afternoon and is part of the Air Force's pre-planned operational schedule for 2026.

The military spokesperson emphasized that this transition is routine and not related to any security incident. As a result, the public may notice increased air traffic and aerial activity over Israeli skies during the relocation period. The Air Force reassured citizens that the heightened presence of aircraft is solely due to the squadron's transfer between bases.

This relocation reflects ongoing strategic adjustments within the Israeli Air Force, aiming to optimize operational readiness and deployment across the country. No further security concerns have been raised in connection with this movement.
