U.S. Deploys Warships, Fighter Jets to Israel to Deter Iran Aggression

U.S. warships and fighter jets being deployed to Israel are intended to deter Iran and tell them to "stand down".

The Biden administration is sending ships to the eastern Mediterranean Sea.

Fighter jets scheduled to leave the region will be kept there for the foreseeable future. More jets are being deployed earlier than planned.

Up to 2 dozen advanced fighter jets will arrive in the coming days to deter Iranian aggression.

The ships and aircraft directly support Israel and deter Iran and Hezbollah from expanding operations.
