the picture shows the uss theodore roosevelt aircraft carrier

the pentagon said on the 11th that the uss theodore roosevelt is returning home, which means that the short-term operation of the us military to keep two aircraft carriers in the middle east has ended.

us defense secretary austin previously ordered the uss roosevelt to extend its deployment and remain in the region, while also requesting the uss abraham lincoln to arrive in the region ahead of schedule. the uss lincoln, located in the gulf of oman, arrived in the middle east a few weeks ago.

u.s. officials said the uss roosevelt and a destroyer are expected to enter the indo-pacific command area on the 12th.

us media reported that the us kept two aircraft carriers in the middle east to help israel prevent attacks from iran and other countries and to deter it. since the outbreak of a new round of israeli-palestinian conflict in october last year, there have been us aircraft carriers in the middle east, and sometimes two aircraft carriers are active in the region at the same time.

earlier this year, the uss eisenhower was stationed in the red sea. on july 14, the aircraft carrier withdrew and returned home after more than half a year of mission.
