U.S. selects roughly 2,000 troops for potential deployment to support Israel
(Worthy News) – The Pentagon has selected a contingent of roughly 2,000 soldiers for a potential deployment in support of Israel ahead of possible Israeli land invasion of the Gaza Strip, which is under the control of the Hamas terrorist group.
Fighting has continued in the region since an Oct. 7 Hamas raid that saw terrorists storm out the coastal territory, seize Israeli border towns, take hostages, and inflict considerable civilian casualties. The size and scope of the raid caught the Israel Defense Forces off-guard and prompted a series of major counterstrikes on the Gaza Strip ahead of a planned ground assault.
American troops are not expected to take part in combat and will likely serve in support, advisory, and medical capacities, according to the Wall Street Journal. The contingent of 2,000 will come from troops stationed largely in the Middle East and Europe. [ Source (Read More…) ]
