US CENTCOM chief hosts rare military summit with Israel, Arab nations in Germany
- Military commanders from the United States, Israel, and several Arab nations convened in Germany last week for a closed-door meeting hosted by Central Command to address regional security amid ongoing conflict with Iran.
- This gathering marked the first such meeting since the United States and Israel began the war against Iran more than six months ago, with escalating tensions over the Houthis driving the discussions.
- Gen. Eyal Zamir met military chiefs from Saudi Arabia, the United Arab Emirates, Bahrain, Kuwait, Qatar, Jordan, and Egypt; Chief Admiral Brad Cooper organized the event to discuss deepening security cooperation.
- Cooper confirmed American forces will remain in the Middle East despite recent Iranian attacks on bases, while presenting Washington's plan to expand vessel traffic through the Strait of Hormuz.
- Military ties have expanded since Israel signed the Abraham Accords in 2020 and shifted to CENTCOM's area of responsibility, with Israel providing intelligence and defense support to regional partners during the war.
