As the Iran-Israel conflict intensifies, the U.S. deploys the USS Nimitz aircraft carrier along with support tankers to bolster military readiness.

The Nimitz aircraft carrier group was rerouted from the Indo-Pacific to the Middle East, joining the USS Carl Vinson. The move comes amid airstrikes between Israel and Iran.

The U.S. military is also sending aircraft to the Middle East and Europe in case they are needed to support U.S. installations overseas.
