StolicaMedia, 13 ноября. A Thursday report from Israeli state broadcaster Kan, citing a U.S. source, says U.S. Central Command has relayed readiness warnings through military channels to Israel and Persian Gulf states about a possible new military operation against Iran. The report says this messaging conflicts with recent public remarks by President Donald Trump that hostilities with the Islamic Republic do not need to be restarted.
According to the report, Washington is still expanding its regional combat capabilities, with a third aircraft carrier strike group expected to arrive in CENTCOM’s area of responsibility. It also says about 200 tanker aircraft are stationed at bases across the Middle East and Europe, alongside thousands of American troops at Middle Eastern installations who operate various systems, including air-defense equipment.
