Original Note:
The US did not „just deploy“ 12 ships to the Middle East. The Washington Post, whose original report this is based on, said that no additional deployments were made. The ships mentioned have been in the region for some time. https://www.washingtonpost.com/world/2024/08/01/israel-hamas-war-iran-haniyeh-hezbollah-news/#link-CJHNUHZXM5GRVDTC5GZAJMKDPI https://news.usni.org/category/fleet-tracker
