CLOSE COMBAT ALERT: USS Tripoli, 2,500 Marines Head Towards Iran, Trump Preparing Ground War?

Описание: The Pentagon has ordered the USS Tripoli and approximately 2,500 Marines from the Indo-Pacific toward the Middle East, giving the US a self-contained forcible entry capability in the region. The Japan-based USS Tripoli, an America-class amphibious assault ship carrying F-35Bs, Ospreys and helicopters, will be accompanied by the USS Robert Smalls and USS Rafael Peralta, arriving in roughly two weeks to join over 50,000 US troops already in the theatre. Trump and Hegseth have not ruled out ground troops. The deployment comes as Iran has effectively closed the Strait of Hormuz with over 1,000 cargo ships stranded, and as US forces struck Iran's Kharg Island oil export terminal. The strategic cost: America's Indo-Pacific presence has just thinned, at precisely the moment China is watching.
