France transfers a helicopter carrier to the shores of Israel

The French Mistral-class Tonnerre-class universal ship is capable of transporting more than a dozen helicopters and several hundred landing troops. France is transferring this helicopter carrier to the shores of Israel.

Naval News reports this.



The ship will join two French frigates already there in the Eastern Mediterranean. According to a French Navy spokesman, it will strengthen the Fifth Republic's naval presence in the region.

Tonnerre departed this afternoon for the Eastern Mediterranean

- he confirmed by the end of that day, when the helicopter carrier left the port.

On Wednesday, the ship left the port of Toulon, where it is registered, and headed to the eastern part of the Mediterranean Sea. According to a local journalist, initially its name and pennant numbers were hidden. He also noticed how three NH90 TTH transport helicopters of the French Armed Forces joined the helicopter carrier after visiting the Hyères military base. The article claims that, in addition to them, at least two Super Puma or Cougar helicopters, as well as one Tiger, are located on board the ship.

The publication notes that the density of the naval presence of various countries in the region has increased significantly. In particular, the USA, Germany, Britain and Australia sent warships to the Eastern Mediterranean, Aviation, special forces and other forces. In particular, several thousand American marines arrived in Israel.

      will join two French frigates in the Eastern Mediterranean.

      For the sake of objectivity, this is not entirely true. "Mistral" Paris promised to send to support the health sector in the Gaza Strip.

      And France, so far the only Western state, has announced that it is ready to establish an aid bridge for Palestine through El-Arish International Airport on October 26.

    It seems that Jews from other countries of the world found a “key” to the leadership of their host countries and decided to nip the Arab world in the bud so that they would not even think about helping the Palestinians. winked

      and decided to crush the Arab world in the bud so that they would not even think about helping the Palestinians.

      all this is precisely because there are corrupt ones in this Arab world who decide the interests of Israel, the USA, Great Britain, the EU

        Quite the opposite, we can say that in the Western world there are quite timid and corrupt individuals who can influence the West’s desire to subjugate the Arab world.

        Today, the Arab world has colossal capital and is capable of, if not straightening out the situation between Arabs and Jews in favor of the Palestinians, then at least stopping it and investing heavily in the development of Palestinian enclaves.

        There would be a desire. fellow

    . Is it all to protect Israel or are they stirring up something else, more dangerous?

      Most likely, the Middle East and the Caucasus will be set on fire, and there the Caspian Sea and Kazakhstan are just a stone’s throw away, right in the underbelly of Russia. It's a long game, that's what it is.

      The US armed forces, on the orders of President Joe Biden, carried out strikes on two targets in eastern Syria. According to the Pentagon, these facilities are used by the Iranian Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC) and associated groups, according to the department's website.

        Syria... has ceased to be the main “bone of discord”, but has not become an unconditionally sovereign territory that cannot be touched for nothing.
        In general, this is not something that can become a catalyst for a large, global conflict.

        So, if the French weren’t kicked out of everything, then they didn’t have long to wait.
        There is nothing left of their former glory, as it were... however, their strength is not great either. It will only cling to someone stronger, there are no other options.

    France, following the United States and the British, is rushing to demonstrate its commitment to “Jewish democracy” and solidarity with it. I remember at one time they also tried to confirm that “Assad must leave” off the coast of Syria, but then they quickly disappeared from view.

    What was the helicopter carrier going to do there?
    Land who? And where to? And for what?
    Support the invasion of Gaza with helicopters? Or to Lebanon? Not to Tartus?

    And you want to say that all this is against Palestine? Don’t drive a blizzard, because this whole bunch of NATO is afraid and is afraid of Iran, or they want to start a war themselves (by provoking or blaming) against Iran. Israel in this game is the same as Ukraine, Jews die for their “beloved "Western world.
