On February 11th, local time, three U.S. officials revealed that as the U.S. military prepares for possible strikes against Iran, the Department of Defense has instructed the second carrier strike group to prepare for deployment to the Middle East.
Former U.S. President Donald Trump previously stated that he was considering sending a second carrier strike group to the Middle East to prepare for military action if negotiations with Iran fail. One U.S. official said the deployment order could be issued within hours, but Trump has not yet officially authorized it, and plans may change. Another official stated that the Department of Defense is preparing to deploy a carrier strike group within two weeks, most likely departing from the U.S. East Coast.
