By Reuters
The United States Navy began a series of exercises in the Persian Gulf involving an aircraft carrier and two expeditionary assault ships. The five-day exercise involved amphibious, air and medical forces, the Navy’s Fifth Fleet, headquartered in Bahrain, said in a statement. The start of the exercises coincided with a report that world powers had agreed at talks in London to go forward with a third round of sanctions against Iran unless Tehran is found to be trying to address their concerns about its nuclear program. Iran has dismissed the war games as a morale-boosting exercise for American forces.
