The Institute for National Security Studies (INSS) has identified signs of renewed U.S. military preparations concerning Iran, potentially indicating a new offensive. These preparations include the redeployment of destroyers in the Mediterranean Sea and the rebuilding of refueling aircraft capabilities in Europe.
According to an INSS source, analysis of aircraft movements cautiously suggests the U.S. is reconstructing its refueling fleet in Europe, possibly as a staging point for operations within the U.S. Central Command (CENTCOM) area of responsibility. The institute noted that three destroyers are currently active in the Mediterranean, joining another previously reported destroyer in the region.
While the INSS stated it is unclear if the destroyers will move closer to Israel's immediate vicinity, they are closely monitoring the situation and will provide updates. The institute also pointed out that although the U.S. military has withdrawn some forces in recent months, a significant air and naval combat force remains in the region.
