(MENAFN) US aerial refueling planes landed at Ben Gurion Airport on Monday evening as regional tensions with Iran escalate. Israeli media outlets reported images of the aircraft shortly after their arrival.

The deployment comes ahead of a new round of talks in Geneva on Thursday between the US and Iran to discuss a potential nuclear deal. The discussions occur amid a significant US military buildup in the Persian Gulf and recent drills by Iran’s Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps.
