The U.S. Department of Defense has announced that due to Heightened Tension in the Region, the USS Abraham Lincoln (CVN-72) and her Carrier Strike Group as well as the Wasp Amphibious Ready Group have been ordered to remain in the Middle East; while Squadrons of F-22, F-15E, F-16 and A-10 Combat Aircraft have Increased their Presence at Airbases in the Region, with a further Reinforcement of Defensive Air-Support Capabilities said to be coming in the next few days.
