O porta-aviões será acompanhado por destróieres e cruzadores com mísseis guiados, que são duas outras classes de navios de guerra da Marinha dos EUA.
O país também está tomando medidas para reforçar a presença de caças na região, incluindo os esquadrões de aeronaves dos modelos F-35, F-15, F-16 e A-10.

O presidente dos Estados Unidos, Joe Biden, alertou no sábado (7) que “este não é o momento para qualquer parte hostil a Israel explorar estes ataques para obter vantagens”.
Um funcionário do governo americano disse no sábado que ainda não está claro se o Irã desempenhou um papel direto nos ataques deste fim de semana a Israel, mas que não há dúvida de que o Hamas é financiado, equipado e armado pelo Irã.
