Fourteen cargo planes full of military equipment arrived in Israel amid the increasingly heated conflict in the Middle East.

Israel's Ministry of Defense (Kemhan) said the shipment of military equipment originating from the United States and Germany was part of an "air and sea bridge" that had been operating since the start of Israel's attack on Iran on June 13.

Reported by ANTARA from Anadolu, Friday, June 20, the military equipment was sent to support the Israeli military's "operational readiness".

The aid adds to a list of more than 800 military cargo planes that have landed in Israel since launching a genocide war in the Gaza Strip, Palestine, on October 7, 2023.

The Ministry of Defense of Israel did not specify the type of military equipment sent, while the US and Germany have not made any comments.

Tensions have risen in the Middle East since Friday (13/6), when Israel launched airstrikes on several locations in Iran, including military and nuclear facilities.

Israel reported 25 people were killed and hundreds injured in Iran's retaliatory attacks.

Meanwhile, Iran said at least 639 people were killed and more than 1,300 others injured in Israeli attacks.
