The US Central Command (Centcom) announced the arrival of the second aircraft carrier in the Middle East, to participate in the military campaign against the Houthi group, in northern Yemen.

Centcom said in a tweet on her account on the X platform, Thursday: “The CVN 70 aircraft carrier (CVN 70) and her atmosphere that includes F-35 fighters operating alongside the CVN 75 aircraft carrier (CVN 75) in the US Central Command's responsibility area.

He was the US Secretary of Defense; Beit Higseth, in late March, issued orders to send the aircraft carrier "Karl Vinson", which was working in the East China Sea, to the region, in conjunction with the escalation of the Trump administration from its strikes on the "Houthi rebels".

Higseth also extended, at the time, the mission of the USS Harry S Truman (CVN-75) aircraft is currently stationed in the north of the Red Sea, for an additional month, which is "the second time within six months that the United States remains on two groups of aircraft carriers in the region, while it was usually limited, during previous years, that there is only one group."

Observers believe that the American orientation towards the presence of two aircraft carriers in the region comes within the framework of "strengthening the continuous military campaign against the Houthis supported by Iran, since the middle of last month, especially after their attempts to attack the Truman aircraft carrier and the accompanying protection parts after the intensive raids that targeted the group's sites in its areas of control."
