A single security announcement, circulating early Wednesday, claims that 'absorption readiness' — a heightened civil-defense alert for incoming fire — has been declared across the entire Middle East. The announcement provides no details on the authority behind the declaration, the specific countries involved, or the cause. Earlier reports had indicated localized mobilization alerts in northern Israel and heightened readiness in Arab countries and US bases in the Gulf. This report, if confirmed, would represent a significantly broader alert. The claim is based on a single source and remains unverified.
