| Trump rushes a SECOND warship to enforce Hormuz blockade as Iran taunts 'meaningless' ceasefire |
| 2026-04-24 |
| [DM] The USS George H.W. Bush joined the blockade on Thursday as the number of American aircraft carriers deployed to the Middle East - now three - reaches its highest level in two decades. Trump's build-up of his naval blockade comes after he refused to give a timeline for his ceasefire with Iran after extending it earlier this week. The Bush carrier is among the newest ships of its size in the U.S. fleet, stretching more than 1,000 feet, displacing over 100,000 tons, and powered by two nuclear reactors, with a crew of roughly 5,500 aboard. Trump’s latest move comes after Hezbollah, the Iranian-backed proxy in Lebanon, dismissed the President’s announcement of a three-week extension of the Israel-Lebanon ceasefire as 'meaningless.' |
