US sends in amphibious warship USS Bataan and support vessels with 2,500 Marines on board into the Eastern Mediterranean and places military bases in Iraq on full alert as Iran attacks Israel
[Daily Mail, where America gets its news]
  • US Congressional sources say the amphibious war ship Bataan is leading a US naval task force in the Eastern Mediterranean

  • The Bataan has two support ships and together they have about 2,500 Marines onboard, with guided missile destroyers already in the area

  • The decision comes after Iran unleashed a drone attack on Israel in response to a drone strike that left 12 Iranians dead earlier this month

The US also has several guided missile destroyers including the Carney in the area.

US bases in Iraq have been placed on full alert and will also attempt to shoot down missiles and drones aimed at Israel.

In addition, the US has two destroyers and a Cruiser in the Red Sea that are fully armed with anti-missile weapons and they too are under orders to shoot down any Israeli bound missiles or drones.
