1,000 U.S. European Command Troops Will Deploy to Israel for a Large-scale Missile Defense Exercise With Israeli Forces.

'Some 1,000 U.S. European Command troops will soon deploy to Israel for a large-scale missile defense exercise with Israeli forces. This year’s Juniper Cobra comes at a time of continued concern about Iran’s nuclear program, which will be the subject of talks in October. Iranian officials will meet with multiple nations, including the U.S., to negotiate the program, which many in the international community suspect is being developed for weapons.
The command denied that the training mission was directly linked to regional threats.'
