In response to Iran's retaliatory missile strike, "Israel" coordinated closely with the Pentagon, as reported by Reuters, with a US operational liaison officer present in the control room of "Israel's" Arrow ballistic air defense system.

According to the report, the joint efforts of Israeli, US, UK, French, and Jordanian forces intercepted a significant portion of the incoming Iranian response.

Moshe Patel, director of missile defense at "Israel's" Ministry of Security, said the systems were synchronized with corresponding US systems in the region.

He stated to Israeli Channel 12 TV, "The systems share information, for a joint picture of the sky, and the sky was certainly busy... An American officer sits in the control room of the Arrow weapons system and essentially conducts the coordination with the US systems, shoulder-to-shoulder."
