The newspaper revealed that Israel agreed that the United States of America would deploy Israeli-made Iron Dome batteries in the Gulf region, noting that "the approval came against the backdrop of the signing of normalization agreements between Israel and the Gulf states, and against the backdrop of the tension with Iran."

Israeli security system refused, according to Ha'aretz, "to reveal the names of the Gulf countries in which the Iron Dome batteries will be deployed," noting at the same time that "the US military will deploy Iron Dome batteries that it recently purchased from Israel in some Gulf countries."

The newspaper pointed out that America will also deploy Iron Dome batteries in various military bases in Europe and the Far East, and that they will be operated only by US forces.
