CENTCOM, IDF, Arab militaries held military summit on Middle East, Iran, source confirms to 'Post'

A source from within CENTCOM confirmed to The Jerusalem Post that it hosted senior military leaders from eight countries at a closed conference in Germany last week.

US Central Command (CENTCOM) hosted senior military leaders from eight nations, including the United States, Israel, Saudi Arabia, Bahrain, Kuwait, Qatar, the UAE, Jordan, and Egypt, for a military summit in Germany last week. The discussions focused on enhancing security cooperation in the Middle East, with CENTCOM Chief Admiral Brad Cooper reassuring the leaders that the US would not withdraw its forces from the region in the face of Iranian attacks on US bases.

Israeli officials revealed that the IDF Chief of Staff briefed the Arab nations on Israel's operations on its various fronts, potentially signaling the strengthening of ties between Israel and nearby Gulf States in the vein of the Abraham Accords.
