🇺🇸🇮🇱🇮🇷 American deployment in the Middle East:

🔶 Dozens of additional U.S. troops deployed to Cyprus (+700 from the UK) to assist with possible Lebanon evac

🔶 7 fewer U.S. warships than 2 weeks ago (from ~30% to 25% of the deployed fleet)

🔶 Navy’s only oiler in the region ran aground & towed to Oman

🔶 In August, the U.S. surged military assets into the region to deter Iran from attacking Israel. At its peak, this represented approximately 30% of the deployed U.S. Navy fleet. With the departure of the Roosevelt CSG, plus a few destroyers & logistics ships, it’s now around 25%.
