US Warships Head to Persian Gulf – Tehran 'Ready for War'

Tensions in the Persian Gulf are escalating with the deployment of a US aircraft carrier and accompanying warships, in response to threats from Iran. Tehran has declared it is 'ready for war,' warning of total conflict in the event of a US attack, while Israel is on high alert. US President Trump confirmed that the possibility of an attack on Iran remains on the table, while Iranian sources report that Supreme Leader Ali Khamenei has been moved to a fortified bunker. According to Iranian officials, Iran's armed forces are fully prepared, awaiting orders for possible action. The concentration of US military forces in the region is causing concern in Tehran, with residents expressing fears of a possible attack. Meanwhile, increased military activity has led to flight cancellations by major airlines to Middle Eastern countries, as well as avoidance of the region's airspace. Air France, however, announced the resumption of flights to Dubai, closely monitoring developments. The situation remains fluid, and the international community is watching the developments with concern, as an escalation of tensions could have serious consequences for regional and global security. The deployment of British fighter jets to Qatar and the visit of the US Central Command chief to Israel underscore the growing anxiety and the effort to prevent a potential conflict.
