The USS Gerald R. Ford aircraft carrier was seen entering the Mediterranean Sea yesterday, where it was ordered by US President Donald Trump as part of a massive military buildup in the Middle East.
The carrier was seen transiting the Strait of Gibraltar -- which links the Atlantic Ocean to the Mediterranean -- in a photo taken from the Gibraltar side of the strait.
Trump -- who had previously sent another carrier to the Middle East -- said Friday he is “considering” a limited strike on Iran if negotiations fail to yield a replacement for the nuclear deal with Tehran that he tore up during his first term in office.
