US media outlets report possible deployment of amphibious assault ship
Reports are dealing with quite a special military asset; there have been a couple of them that have come out on US media saying that a ship called the USS Tripoli, which is an amphibious assault ship, has been approved by Secretary of War Pete Hegseth, that it can head towards the Middle East.
It’s got 2,000 troops, together with a group of about 2,500 marines. At the moment, these are just US media reports; we’ve obviously asked the Pentagon this ourselves, and we got this from a defence official: “We’ll not speculate on future troop movements or force posture to protect operational security”.
I’ve been speaking to a military expert here about what this means if this ship is heading towards the Middle East, and the important thing about the ship is that it is an amphibious assault ship, which means that it can deploy troops, aircraft, and landing craft from sea onto land during military operations.
Israeli shells hit UN peacekeepers’ base in southern Lebanon
Israeli shelling has struck the headquarters of a Nepalese battalion serving with the United Nations Interim Force in Lebanon (UNIFIL) in the southern Lebanese town of Mays al-Jabal, according to local reports.
Lebanon’s National News Agency said shells landed inside the peacekeeping compound. No Nepalese soldiers were reported injured.
The Honorary Consulate General of Nepal in Beirut condemned the attack, warning that targeting UN positions represents a serious breach of international law.
“The Nepalese soldiers participating in UNIFIL have served for many years with a spirit of commitment and discipline to promote peace and stability in southern Lebanon,” the consulate said.

>>2736498they can't be stupid enough to sail an amphibious assault ship all the way up the gulf to that island? I though they were gonna do it with paratroopers. That's got to be just the press yapping
