00:17A big armada is moving toward Iran.
00:20Those are the words of U.S. President Donald Trump himself.
00:24He says the force is very powerful and already on the move, but adds, hopefully we won't
00:30have to use it.
00:32So what's actually happening, and why now?
00:35Over the past few days, tensions in the Middle East have surged to levels not seen in years.
00:41At the center of it all, Iran, facing massive internal protests, economic collapse, and
00:47international pressure, and the United States, now dramatically expanding its military presence
00:53in the region.
00:55President Trump confirmed that a major U.S. naval force, led by the USS Abraham Lincoln aircraft
01:01carrier, has arrived in regional waters.
01:04This isn't just symbolic.
01:06An aircraft carrier strike group is essentially a floating military base capable of launching
01:12airstrikes, defending itself, and sustaining operations for months.
01:17In a recent interview, Trump described the deployment bluntly.
01:21We have a big armada next to Iran, very powerful.
01:25He compared it to earlier U.S. naval operations near Venezuela, but emphasized that this one is
01:31even larger.
01:32At the same time, he insisted the goal is deterrence, not war.
01:37Trump also claimed Iran has been reaching out repeatedly, saying Tehran wants to make a deal,
01:43and wants to talk.
01:45So what does this big armada include?
01:48At the center is the USS Abraham Lincoln, a nuclear-powered aircraft carrier.
01:53It's escorted by guided-missile destroyers, cruisers, and support ships, all designed to
01:59protect the carrier and project force across the region.
02:03On top of that, reports indicate U.S. fighter jets have been repositioned closer to Iran, along
02:09with refueling aircraft and cargo planes.
02:12Military analysts say this level of coordination is not routine, and sends a clear message.
02:19This buildup comes as Iran is facing one of its most severe internal crises in decades.
02:25Widespread protests have erupted over inflation, unemployment, and government repression.
02:31Human rights groups report thousands killed, mass arrests, executions, and a near-total
02:37internet blackout.
02:39Trump has openly warned Iran's leadership not to escalate violence against protesters.
02:45At one point, he claimed U.S. threats forced Iran to halt planned executions, saying if they
02:51continued, Iran would be hit harder than ever.
02:54Iran, meanwhile, is publicly downplaying the U.S. military buildup.
02:59Its warnings are unmistakable.
03:02Officials say any attack would trigger dire consequences and could spark an all-out regional
03:08war.
03:09Iran's leadership accuses foreign powers of fueling unrest, and says it will defend itself
03:15and its allies if provoked.
03:17With U.S. allies like Israel and Saudi Arabia watching closely, any confrontation could expand
03:24far beyond Iran.
03:26Right now, everything is in motion, but nothing is locked in.
03:30The ships are deployed, the jets are repositioned, Trump insists talks are possible, Iran insists
03:37it won't be intimidated.
03:39So for now, the big armada sits nearby, powerful, visible, and waiting.
03:45Is this a warning meant to force negotiations, or the opening move of a much larger confrontation?
04:05Say goodbye.
