The Pentagon is moving a Marine expeditionary unit and   more warships to the Middle East , as Iran steps up its attacks in the Strait of Hormuz. Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth has approved a request from Centcom for an element of an amphibious ready group and attached Marine expeditionary unit, typically consisting of several warships and 5,000 Marines and sailors, according to three U.S. officials.



President Trump said that   it is unlikely Iranians   will rise up soon against the regime and that he would   “feel it in my bones”   when the Iran war should end.



All six crew members   aboard a KC-135 refueling aircraft that went down in western Iraq on Thursday have died, according to U.S. Central Command. Thirteen servicemembers have been killed in action during Operation Epic Fury, according to the military.

he would     “feel it in my bones”      when the Iran war should end.

(Does that mean he hasn't "felt it in his bones yet"-- so the war "should not" end yet?)
