WASHINGTON: The Pentagon Saturday moved to step up its military readiness in the Middle East, ordering activation of air defence systems “throughout” the region and alerting additional US forces that they may be deployed soon.

At least 55 dead as Israel steps up Gaza strikes: Hamas

US Secretary of Defence Lloyd Austin said in a statement that the moves were in response to “recent escalations by Iran and its proxy forces across the Middle East.”

Austin did not say how many additional US troops would be deployed to the region.

@Dr Samy Rizk, I remember when Saddam Hussein said..."we will give the mother of the wars to USA". It will be the same result.
