The US is sending thousands of marines to the Middle East
New and important reports have emerged regarding the United States rapidly deploying its Marine Corps forces to the Middle East region. Zamin.uz reported on this matter.
According to information provided by the prestigious The Wall Street Journal, thousands of servicemembers are expected to arrive in this area on Friday. These events coincide precisely with the time when Donald Trump shortened the deadline set for Iran to open the Strait of Hormuz.
Based on widely reported news, approximately 2,100 marines comprising the 31st Expeditionary Unit have departed via specialized vessels. They are being transported to the area under the responsibility of Central Command with the help of modern military ships such as the USS Tripoli and USS New Orleans.
Official deployment of military personnel will begin on Friday, but several more days are required for the forces to fully reach their target area and prepare to carry out their missions. Military experts emphasize in their opinions that such a rapid increase in naval and amphibious forces is being carried out in line with recent warnings issued by the USA.
It is stated that these actions could further escalate the political and military situation in the region and significantly increase the likelihood of using force in the future. Furthermore, any large-scale movements around the Strait of Hormuz could have a serious impact on global energy markets and international security.
Since this area is of critical importance for global oil supply routes, any changes there directly affect the entire world economy. Therefore, all major countries around the world are closely monitoring this situation and preparing for various scenarios that may occur in the future.
