THE US Navy said yesterday it has deployed a second aircraft carrier to the Persian Gulf region amid rising tensions with Iran over its nuclear program.
The deployment of the nuclear-powered USS Enterprise along the Abraham Lincoln carrier strike group marks only the fourth time in the past decade that the Navy has had two aircraft carriers operating at the same time in the Gulf and the Arabian Sea, said Commander Amy Derrick-Frost of the Bahrain-based 5th Fleet.
