Following an Israeli strike targeting a senior Hezbollah official in southern Beirut, the United States has dispatched warships to the Mediterranean, potentially signaling an escalation in the ongoing conflict between Hezbollah and Israel. The USS Gerald R. Ford, the world's largest warship, was already in the region. Now, three additional ships—the USS Wasp, USS New York, and USS Oak Hill—are heading toward Lebanon, carrying 2,200 troops and evacuation resources. This move aims to exert pressure on Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, Iran, and Hezbollah to avoid further escalation. The ships are equipped for amphibious assaults, humanitarian aid, and medical support, highlighting a strategic but non-combative intent.
