On Tuesday, the Israeli Army successfully intercepted an unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV) launched from the Red Sea heading towards the port city of Eilat using its naval anti-missile defense system based on the ‘Iron Dome’ system. The Saar 6 type corvette carried out the interception with ease, thanks to the advanced ‘Naval Dome’ system that it possesses. According to a statement posted on social network X, the Israel Defense Forces (IDF) have deployed ships to the Red Sea in response to Yemen’s Houthi rebels increasing missile launches against commercial ships in retaliation for the situation in Gaza Strip.
The pro-Iranian militia Islamic Resistance in Iraq has also attacked various targets in Israel, including an oil port in Ashkelon, as reported by Al Mayadeen chain. These incidents highlight the ongoing tensions and security concerns in the region that necessitate the use of advanced defense systems and military capabilities by the Israeli Army.
In recent years, Israel has acquired up to four Saar 6 type corvettes from ThyssenKrupp Marine Systems (TKMS). The last ship arrived in Haifa in 2021, showcasing Israel’s commitment to maintaining its naval power and ensuring its security. As such, these actions underscore the importance of having robust and cutting-edge defense systems in place to protect against potential threats from both land and sea.
