US European Command chief General Alexus Grynkewich warned the Pentagon that the United States lacks sufficient military resources to protect Israel from missile attacks amid the ongoing conflict with Iran. The Washington Post reported on August 2 that Grynkewich sent the warning in an urgent message to senior Pentagon military officials.
He said that without the rapid deployment of another US Navy destroyer, Washington could eventually have to choose between protecting its own forces and defending Israel. Five US Navy destroyers are deployed in the eastern Mediterranean for Israel’s air defense. After five months of continuous operations, missile stocks are declining and the ships require urgent maintenance.
The Pentagon assesses that US forces have fired more than 200 THAAD interceptor missiles in the conflict, nearly half of total stocks. Navy destroyers have also launched more than 100 interceptors. A CSIS analysis said the United States has used about 45 percent of precision strike missiles, at least 50 percent of THAAD and Patriot interceptors, and about 30 percent of Tomahawk cruise missiles.
