Middle East - USS Carl Vinson deployed

Tensions between the U.S. and Iran continue to grow as the Middle Eastern nation places its Islamic Revolutionary Guard on “high alert” due to the rising American military presence in the region.
Iran announced that it is organizing its military as President Donald Trump cautions about possible U.S. military strikes unless Tehran reaches an agreement with Washington regarding its nuclear program.
The move comes as satellite imagery revealed the USS Carl Vinson and its strike group entered the Indian Ocean through the Malacca Straits on Monday, April 7.
The move could signal an even more aggressive U.S. stance toward Iran.
