The prestigious Wall Street Journal, citing Defense Department officials, said the US could fly a second aircraft carrier near Israel. The US military goal is said to be aimed at preventing other powers in the region from entering the war between Hamas and Israel.
The aircraft carrier Dwight D. Eisenhower and its escort ships had been scheduled for months to depart this week for the Middle East. According to the official, the aircraft carrier is expected to arrive in the Middle East in about two weeks.
Meanwhile, the aircraft carrier "Gerald R. Ford" and its accompanying ships, some of which have nuclear capabilities, are already moving towards belligerent Israel and are expected to arrive in the next few hours. The Pentagon is considering the possibility, but has not officially decided whether the Eisenhower will replace the Ford or whether both groups of warships will remain in the region.
The last time the United States mobilized two aircraft carriers in the Middle East was in 2020, after a missile attack on Camp Taji in Iraq killed two American soldiers.
