The United States has refused to supply air defense interceptors to Gulf countries.

"Middle East Eye" reported that the United States has refused some Gulf countries' requests to replenish their air defense and missile interception missiles.

A former U.S. official familiar with internal U.S. government affairs told "Middle East Eye" that Gulf countries should not expect new supplies of interception missiles, as there are no stocks and the production capacity is low. "We have consumed the ammunition produced over the past few years in just the past few days."

After the U.S. and Israel attacked Iran, Iran launched a strong retaliation. Saudi Arabia, Kuwait, the UAE, Qatar, and Bahrain have all been attacked by Iranian ballistic missiles and drones, with Bahrain, Qatar, and the UAE, which are closest to Iran, suffering the heaviest strikes.

However, if Gulf countries cannot obtain new air defense and missile interception missile supplies, it will be more difficult for President Trump to encourage Gulf countries to join the campaign against Iran.
