US President Donald Trump has announced that a large fleet of US warships is on its way to Iran, in what he describes as an "armada". This comes just over a month after anti-government protests began in the country. The president's comments have raised concerns about the escalating tensions between Washington and Tehran.
The move appears to be part of a broader effort by Trump to demonstrate American military strength and deter Iranian aggression. However, the exact nature and timing of the US warships' arrival is unclear, which has left many wondering if this is an attempt to provoke a reaction from Iran or simply a show of force.
