Is Iran in the crosshairs?
The US aircraft carrier strike group USS Abraham Lincoln has moved to the Indian Ocean and is now in the area of responsibility of Central Command, which has jurisdiction over military operations in the Middle East.
This was reported by the CNN on Monday, January 26.
This way, the aircraft carrier will be able to take part in potential U.S. operations against Iran.
A carrier strike group typically includes an aircraft carrier, missile cruisers, anti-aircraft ships and anti-submarine destroyers or frigates.
At the same time, CNN notes that a final decision on Iran has not yet been made - although U.S. President Donald Trump is considering launching airstrikes against Iran. Allies are urging the US to refrain from any military action, the channel notes.
As Charter97.org reported, the US Air Force is also transporting supplies to the Middle East from a military airfield in Texas.
On January 14, Reuters reported that the US could invade Iran within 24 hours. The publication cited two European officials, but also noted that a final decision on the scope and timing of the operation had not yet been made.
January 15, NBC News, citing White House sources, reported that U.S. President Donald Trump had expressed a desire for a "swift and decisive" strike on Iran so that the United States would not be drawn into a long war.
On January 25, the opposition Iranian publication Iran International wrote that Iran's supreme leader Ali Khamenei amid fears of a U.S. strike hid in an underground bunker.
January 26, Time magazine reported that Iranian security services could have killed up to 30,000 protesters in just two days - January 8-9.
Since the end of 2025, large-scale anti-government protests have continued in Iran, which began in Tehran with entrepreneurs dissatisfied with the economic situation and the fall of the national currency, the rial.
The protests have involved even those regions of the country previously considered loyal to the current regime.
