Gibraltar

Picard surveys the fort being constructed at Gibraltar, around the former naval base. The fort will allow defense of Israel from seagoing threats outside the Mediterranean, while also protecting the massive naval base being constructed with it. The naval base will allow refueling and rearming of ships on their way to battle or on long journeys. It will also hold a fleet of ships able to respond to threats or help allies faster, as it is closer.
