According to The Wall Street Journal, the US is sending up to 5,000 additional troops to the Middle East after Pete Hegseth approved a United States Central Command request for an amphibious force. The deployment includes three warships, about 2,500 Marines, USS Tripoli, and aircraft such as F-35B Lightning II jets and MV-22B Osprey. The move signals that Washington, despite boasting of success, is not planning to scale down its war with Iran anytime soon. #Israel #Palestine #Gaza #Iran
