The President of the USA, Donald Trump, announced that an American naval "armada" is heading towards the Persian Gulf, maintaining pressure on Tehran.

Donald Trump emphasized that this is a precautionary measure in case the situation with Iran worsens. He mentioned that he is closely monitoring the situation and expressed his desire to avoid conflict. No details were provided about the nature of the fleet sent to the region, only referring to an "armada" and a "great force."

The announcement comes following statements from the head of the Revolutionary Guards in Iran, who threatened retaliation against Israel and the United States. Protests in Iran, which began on December 28, have been violently suppressed, with an official death toll of 3,117.
