U.S. extends Syrian deployment, Russia protests ‘provocative actions’
(Worthy News) – Russia last week protested “provocative actions” by the United States in Syria, shortly after Washington extended the deployment of a carrier strike group following deadly attacks by Iran-backed forces.
The extension of the George H.W. Bush Carrier Strike Group – composed of 5,000 U.S. forces in the European Command operational area – will allow “options to potentially bolster the capabilities… to respond to a range of contingencies in the Middle East,” said U.S. Central Command spokesperson Colonel Joe Buccino.
News of the deployment came a day after the Pentagon doubled its tally of the number of U.S. troops wounded in last week’s attacks in Syria to 12. The attacks also killed an American contractor. [ Source: i24 (Read More…) ]
