A new US aircraft carrier arrives in the Middle East. The ship has the name USS George Washington. It reaches the Arabian Sea on Wednesday. The US Central Command reports this.
The USS George Washington replaces another ship. The old ship has the name USS Abraham Lincoln. It works for nearly 6 months without pause. This is a new record for the US Navy. The crew is very tired.
Bad reports exist about the USS Abraham Lincoln. There is too little food and water. The showers are often dirty or broken. Many soldiers suffer from mental health issues. Some even want to jump from the ship.
The US government under Donald Trump sees this in a different way. It says: Life is hard in war. Politicians from the Democrats demand a check. They find the planning for the war bad. An end to the war against Iran is not in sight.
The USA controls important paths in the sea. In the Strait of Hormuz, a secret route exists. Many tankers with oil drive there at night. The US military protects these ships. Iran tries to attack the ships. But the USA intercepts many drones.
