Amid the war situation, the United States 'are exercising a drill that does not really seem like a ‘drill’. The United States of America has deployed some of the most advanced aircraft carriers. The US Air Force carriers have left Virginia for a regularly scheduled deployment on Tuesday. As reported by AP, these aircraft carriers could be positioned near Israel after the US inserted itself in Israel's war to destroy Iran's nuclear programme.

The United States of America was already planning to deploy the USS Gerald R. Ford when American warplanes bombed three Iranian sites early Sunday to support Israel's goals. Soon after, Iran retaliated with a limited missile attack on a US military base in Qatar on Monday.

But later on Monday, President Donald Trump said on social media that Israel and Iran have agreed to a “complete and total ceasefire” to be phased in over 24 hours. While expressing himself on the social media platform TruthSocial, Trump said that “the ceasefire would bring an ‘official END’ to the war.”
