More recently, it was found that the landing strip in the Uvda airport

Surprising, especially since Uvda is constantly used for charter flights
going to Eilat.
Still, saying that Israel has not backup airport is a bit of an
exaggeration. Most air force bases are suited to handle civic aviation
in case of a real need, and most can take big planes (at least as far as
runways are concerned. I'm not sure about parking places and instrument
landing facilities).
