The United States is about to make a big decision in this war that has been going on for more than a month. Amid tensions with Iran, the Trump administration is sending thousands of troops to the Middle East. These soldiers from the 82nd Airborne Division are very skilled. Reuters reported that they have already started landing in the Gulf countries.
\nReuters reported, citing two US officials, that these special forces are going there after Trump announced the deployment of additional troops. However, at the same time, US President Donald Trump is considering what the next step will be in the war against Iran.
\nOn March 18, Reuters reported that the Trump administration is considering deploying several thousand more US troops to the Middle East. This move would also open the way for sending troops deep into Iranian territory. These paratroopers, operated from Fort Bragg, North Carolina, will join thousands of Navy, Marine and Special Operations forces already sent to the region. About 2,500 Marines arrived in the Middle East over the weekend.
\nThe officials, who spoke on condition of anonymity, did not say where exactly the troops were being deployed. But they said the move was expected. The additional troops include part of the 82nd Airborne Division headquarters, logistics and other support units, and a brigade combat team.
\nThe United States said no decision had been made to send troops directly to Iran. However, one source said the deployment was intended to bolster the capabilities of a possible future military operation. The troops could be used for a variety of purposes in a war with Iran. It is thought that they could be used to seize Kharg Island. At the same time, Trump could use them to take control of the Strait of Hormuz.
\nAt the same time, US Secretary of State Marco Rubio confirmed that the main objectives of the military operation would be completed in the coming weeks. What the future holds for the Strait of Hormuz and how the global economy copes with the shock remain to be seen.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
