The USA is further strengthening its forces in the Middle East region. After sending the aircraft carrier USS Gerald R. Ford and bolstering air assets in the region, they are also deploying the 101st Airborne Division to Jordan.
US sources said Israel would need more ammunition and missiles. That is why they are transferring to its ownership all the quantities of American weapons that are in warehouses in Israel.
However, a study by a think tank in Bahrain, where the 5th Fleet is based, showed that it is possible that Israel will have to fight on five fronts.
Washington sent the 101st Airborne Division to Jordan!
Amid the escalation of the Palestinian-Israeli conflict, Washington sent the 101st Airborne Division, which is the most combat-ready unit of the United States Army, to Jordan.
Along with this, sources say that members of the US Special Operations Forces arrived in Israel along with CIA operatives.
In addition, Washington is sending yet another aircraft carrier to the area of potential hostilities. One aircraft carrier is already within striking distance of the Lebanese-Israeli border.
Specifically, John Kirby, the representative of the National Security Council, stated in his statements that a second US aircraft carrier will be in the Mediterranean in the coming days.
According to Kirby, the aircraft carrier that will be in the Middle East in the coming days is the Dwight D Eisenhower, which will start “on a long and planned trip” that will take place next week and “will be where it’s needed.”

Russia: Get out of Israel!
At the same time, the Russian ambassador to Israel, Anatoly Viktorov, called on Russians to leave the country without waiting for the situation to worsen.
During a discussion on the current Arab-Israeli conflict at the Valdai International Debating Club, he suggested that his compatriots take advantage of the available scheduled flights.
“My strong recommendation … is to use the services of Russian and existing foreign air carriers that continue to provide their services now,” the diplomat said.
Viktorov added that in case of any other development of events, the embassy will not leave any of its citizens unattended.
Moscow, meanwhile, has proposed removing civilians from the Gaza Strip. According to Aliya Zaripova, press secretary of the Russian mission to the Palestinian National Authority (PNA), the list included citizens of Ukraine, Belarus, Kazakhstan, Moldova and Palestine.
In total, there are 400 people, of which 280 are Russians.
Earlier, the German Foreign Ministry scheduled the removal of citizens from Israel by special flights on October 12 and 13. Poland, Thailand, India, Lithuania, Bulgaria, Hungary and others have already begun evacuating their citizens.
The Iranian Guards Will Support Hezbollah Against Israel
According to Russian sources, Iran may enter into an armed confrontation with Israel on the side of the Shiite movement Hezbollah in the framework of a joint operation.
Thus, a significant territorial expansion of the conflict that has erupted in the Middle East cannot be ruled out.
So far, Iran has refrained from directly participating in hostilities, limiting itself to a humanitarian mission. Tehran, together with Cairo, organized the provision of aid to the Gaza Strip, mainly medicine and food.
According to the Russians, it cannot be ruled out that the United States, together with Israel, will try to provoke Iran’s dynamic involvement in current events, thereby undermining Tehran’s ability to resolve local conflicts without the use of military force.
Analysts See Risk of War on Five Fronts for Israel
In the near future, Israel is threatened with the outbreak of hostilities on five fronts simultaneously. This is the conclusion reached by analysts from the Le Beck special center operating in Bahrain at the base of the 5th Fleet, reports Bild.
Fighting with the Palestinian Hamas movement operating in the Gaza Strip is already underway.
Now the situation on the border with Lebanon has worsened and the Hezbollah movement may go to war with Israel.
In addition, the Palestinians of the West Bank are likely to join the war and the entry of Syria and Iran into the war is likely. Analysts stress that the conflict will be long-term and constantly escalating.
The Palestinian issue is one of the cornerstones of the state ideology of Iran, as well as Syria. It is clear that in the context of the development of the Israeli military operation in Gaza, Iran will not be able to stay on the sidelines.
Probably, the first thing that will happen is that Israel will attack Iran’s “proxies” in Lebanon, Iraq and Yemen, as well as the IRGC (Iranian Revolutionary Guard Corps).
According to representatives of a Bahraini think tank, Israel is still afraid to openly blame the Iranian authorities for the attack on the country, as they understand that such an accusation would actually drive Tehran into a corner and give it no room for maneuver.
Then Iran’s entry into the war will simply become inevitable.
As long as Israel does not exceed certain limits in relation to Iran, the latter may refrain from direct participation in hostilities, since, in turn, it fears the entry of the United States and NATO into the war.
But how the events will unfold is still completely unclear.
