Let’s remember that against the backdrop of Israel’s war with Hamas militants, the United States began to build up military forces in the region. In early October, the US aircraft carrier Gerald Ford and her escort ships arrived in the eastern Mediterranean. Later, another aircraft carrier, Dwight Eisenhower, was sent to the region.
The US military also sent marine quick reaction forces to the coast of Israel.
Let’s remember that this week Antony Blinken came to Israel again – for the third time since the start of attacks by Hamas militants and the start of active military operations by the IDF.
Blinken also spoke about Israel’s plans. He said that Tel Aviv does not intend to govern the Gaza Strip after the war.
