Israel Reportedly Seeks US Go-Ahead to Provide Arab Gulf States With Laser Weaponry_我的网站

一 |     2026年8月9日，第七届“8·8”北京体育消费季圆满结束。    Israeli officials are planning to ask US President Joe Biden for his formal blessing to provide an Iron Beam laser-based air defense system to Gulf Arab states including the United Arab Emirates and possibly Saudi Arabia, Israel’s Channel 12 has reported.,The unsourced Hebrew-language report, cited by the Times of Israel, indicated the delivery of the system to the Gulf countries would assist with the US-led push to ramp up air defense cooperation between Tel Aviv and a loose regional coalition including Egypt, Jordan, Bahrain, the UAE, Saudi Arabia and Qatar.,The Jewish State does not have formal diplomatic relations with the latter two country, and Riyadh has repeatedly stated that it would not establish formal ties with Israel until the Palestinian question and the creation of a Palestinian state was settled.,On Sunday, the Wall Street Journal reported, citing US and Middle Eastern sources, that the Pentagon had organized a hush-hush meeting in Sharm El Sheikh, Egypt in March to discuss ways to improve air defense cooperation against Iranian ballistic missiles and drones. The meeting was said to have been chaired by then-US Central Command chief Frank McKenzie, and attended by top military commanders from Israel and the Arab countries who were invited.,Israeli Defense Minister Benny Gantz, who announced the formation of a regional anti-Iranian air defense alliance last week, appeared to signal the veracity of WSJ’s reporting on Monday, saying Israel was “building” a “wide partnership with additional countries in the region to ensure a secure, stable and prosperous Middle East,” and that “among other things, this also includes aerial defense.”,Israel Creating 'Middle East Air Defense Alliance' Under US' Wing, Defense Minister Says20 June, 11:03 GMT,“We will strengthen this, as a stable Middle East is an international, regional and Israeli interest of the highest order,” Gantz said.,Iran’s military also appeared to issue an indirect response to WSJ’s report, with Armed Forces Chief of Staff Mohammad Bagheri warning Monday that Tehran “will not tolerate” the threats posed by Israel and its cooperation with CENTCOM, and “will definitely react to them.”,Israel has long touted the purported advanced capabilities of its so-called ‘Iron Beam’ laser-based air defense system, a prototype of which was unveiled last year. Earlier this month, Prime Minister Naftali Bennett said the “game-changer” weapon would shift the balance in Israel’s favor, with the estimated $2 in electricity required per burst to intercept enemy rockets just a drop in the bucket compared to the tens of thousands of dollars a rocket might cost. Bennett expressed hope that the system would come online by 2023.,‘Iron Beam’: Israel’s New Laser Air Defence System ‘Will Bankrupt Enemies’, Bennett Says1 June, 11:44 GMT,Last week, Breaking Defense reported that Israel would ask Biden for more money Iron Beam’s development, on top of the $3.3 billion in annual US subsidies already received by the Israeli military and defense establishment. The outlet’s sources indicated that Israel will likely ask the US president to shell out about $300 million in additional cash.,“The relations between the US and Israel are solid. The issues that will be on the table during the visit are of utmost importance to both the US and Israel. I’m confident that the talks will be fruitful to both sides,” a senior defense source told the outlet.,During his trip to the Middle East next month, Biden is expected to tour an Israeli airbase and get a firsthand look at the prototype laser weapons being developed by Israeli defense giants Rafael and Elbit Systems.,Lasers for use against aircraft, missiles, drones, ships, and ground equipment have been on the drawing board of weapons developers since the Cold War, with engineers spending decades mulling over the prospects of replacing conventional missile and shell projectiles with the futuristic beam pulse. But energy-directed weapons have long faced what have previously been deemed unsolvable issues, such as the immense amounts of power required to operate them, as well as interaction between combat lasers and natural phenomena such as rain, fog, smog or dust, all of which dissipates their strength.,Last month, US weapons maker Raytheon reported that its own laser weapon, fitted aboard an Army Stryker vehicle, had successfully downed incoming mortar rounds in testing.,Raytheon Laser Weapon on Stryker Vehicle Succeeds at Shooting Down Incoming Mortar Shells19 May, 22:19 GMT。作为本届消费季的重要参与方，北京市体育彩票管理中心携80平米沉浸式主题展区精彩亮相，以多元互动、趣味体验和公益科普，助力首都体育消费升温，为体育事业高质量发展注入新活力。8月7日，“第七届8•8北京体育消费季”在朝阳区奥林匹克公园景观大道火热开启，北京体彩全力助阵本届体育消费季，以“迈开步 动出彩 全民全运 体彩惠民”主题，组织开展了一系列充满趣味与活力的互动游戏，3天活动中累计吸引超过2500位运动爱好者和周边游客前往现场打卡体验，吸引超10万运动爱好者和体育彩票购彩者借助照片直播、BRTV北京时间直播间线上打卡。走进北京体彩展区，三大核心功能区域有序分布，兼顾互动体验、福利回馈与知识科普，全方位展现体育彩票的多元魅力。 在互动游戏体验区，今年创新引入的 “压感跑酷” 和 “趣味打弹弓” 成为全场焦点。参与者只需关注“北京体彩”官方微信公众号，即可踏上智能压感跑道，在竞速冲刺中感受奔跑的畅快；或是拿起软弹弓，瞄准目标，体验精准投射的乐趣。两款游戏覆盖全年龄段，让市民在挥洒汗水与欢声笑语中，充分感受体育运动与体彩乐趣的完美交融。市民参与现场互动游戏即可赢取积分，累积的积分可用于兑换抽奖机会，现场抽取今天的幸运“彩票”。
