Arab–Israeli alliance

The Arab–Israeli alliance is a security coalition comprising Israel and various Arab countries. Originally formed in the interest of the Gulf Cooperation Council, it is primarily focused on deterring the political and military ambitions of Iran, which engages in proxy conflicts both with Saudi Arabia and with Israel. It has been actively promoted by the United States since the February 2019 Warsaw conference. It is sometimes referred to as the Israeli–Sunni alliance, due to the Arab countries in it being predominantly Sunni states, while Iran and much of its Axis of Resistance are predominantly Shia. The coalition has also been referred to as the Abraham Alliance or Abrahamic Alliance, after Abraham, the shared patriarch of the Jews and Arabs.
