US deploys fighter jets, warships to protect Israel: After the killing of Ismail Haniyya, the head of the terrorist organization Hamas, the threat of an attack on Israel by Iran has increased. Which can trigger another large-scale war in the world. The US has already said that Iran can attack Israel to avenge Haniyya's death. Amid this situation, the US has deployed fighter jets and warships in the Middle East to protect Israel. The US has taken action after Iran and its allies threatened retaliation after the killing of a Hamas leader in Tehran and a Hezbollah commander in Beirut.
The US has said that the US Defense Department will deploy fighter jet squadrons in the Middle East. It will maintain aircraft carriers in the region. The Pentagon said President Joe Biden took this action as part of preparations to protect Israel from Iranian attack.
This decision has been taken to ensure the safety of American soldiers and strengthen the presence of the US military. The Pentagon has decided to keep an aircraft carrier in the region by next year as a deterrent against Iran. However, it is not known where the fighter jet squadron will come from and where it will be deployed in the Middle East.
Defense Secretary Lloyd Austin has ordered the deployment of additional ballistic missiles in Europe and the Middle East. Along with this, preparations have also been started to send weapons attacking from the ground. Joe Biden's conversation with Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu on Thursday afternoon discussed the deployment of US forces to protect against possible attacks by American ballistic missiles and drones.
US warships are deployed in the Middle East and the eastern Mediterranean. These include two Navy destroyers, the USS Roosevelt and the USS Bulkeley, as well as the USS Wasps and the USS New York. It is not yet clear which new ships the US will deploy to the Middle East.
Earlier in April, the US military foiled a missile and drone attack by Iran on Israel.
