From The Epoch Times:

President Donald Trump said on Jan. 22 that the U.S. Navy has sent a large flotilla toward Iran as the Islamic regime continues to be engulfed in its largest wave of protests since the 1979 revolution.

Speaking with reporters on Air Force One on Thursday, Trump said the United States has deployed its Navy in the direction of Iran, “just in case,” as he has repeatedly warned the Iranian regime not to execute protesters or face the wrath of the U.S. military.

“We‘ll see what happens. We have a big force going toward Iran. I’d rather not see anything happen, but we’re watching them very closely,” Trump said.

Though the President did not share details about this deployment, the Times did note that the Abraham Lincoln Carrier Strike Group was spotted earlier this week headed toward the Indian Ocean.

Protests have been raging in Iran for nearly a month now. According to the Times, the Iranian regime has killed nearly 5,000 protestors, injuring another 7,000. President Trump swore early on that he would hold the Iranian regime accountable for these deaths and injuries.

While announcing the incoming arrival of native ships, President Trump issued yet another threat to Iran. He warned the Islam regime against executing more than 800 protestors as it had previously planned, warning that this action would “make what we did to your Iran nuclear [facilities] look like peanuts. An hour before this horrible thing was going to take place, they canceled it. And they actually said they canceled it. They didn’t postpone it. They canceled it. So, that was a good sign. But we have an armada. We have a massive fleet heading in that direction. And maybe we won’t have to use it.”

As protests in Iran continue, let’s pray for the protection of the protestors, as well as for wisdom for our leaders as they hold this regime accountable.
