The Israeli regime has deployed a battery of its US-funded Iron Dome missile system in the southern city of Eilat close to the Egyptian border.

A military spokesperson of the Tel Aviv regime said on Monday that a battery of Iron Dome rocket interceptors “has been deployed in the town of Eilat as part of tests, momentarily modifying the sites where these systems are deployed.”

According to Israeli media, it is the first time the battery is being deployed in the border town.

On July 12, an Israeli military spokesperson said the move will be “part of an operational deployment program which includes changing the locations of the batteries from time to time.”

Iron Dome is produced with the financial support of the United States.

In May, the US House of Representatives appropriated 947 million dollars for the Iron Dome, David’s Sling, and a long-range Arrow missile program in Israel.

The Tel Aviv regime is the top recipient of military aid from Washington.

Relations between Cairo and Tel Aviv have deteriorated since the 2011 Egyptian revolution that overthrew Hosni Mubarak, a long-time and staunch ally of Israel.
