World2 sources2 countries🔦 Under-reported25m ago
Greece has relocated an anti-aircraft Patriot missile battery to the island of Crete to strengthen the defense of a major military installation. The deployment, carried out on a Sunday in Athens, was prompted by the risk of potential Iranian attacks targeting facilities in the Eastern Mediterranean that house United States military equipment.
The relocation comes in response to ongoing security concerns regarding Iran's military capabilities. According to reports, Tehran retains a significant arsenal of ballistic missiles capable of exceeding a range of 2,000 kilometers, which poses a potential threat to targets located in southeastern Europe.
