Several hours ago, reports emerged regarding the deployment of multiple refueling tanker aircraft, bombers, and U.S. fighter jets over the Mediterranean Sea. This is taking place while a decision is being made on whether the United States will join Israel in potential attacks against nuclear and missile facilities on Iranian territory.
“Iran can't have a nuclear weapon,” wrote President Donald Trump on Monday night, shortly before returning early to Washington following his participation in the G7 summit in Canada. “Everyone must evacuate Tehran immediately,” he added in a statement that triggered international alarms.
Trump's warning to the inhabitants of the Iranian capital represents an abrupt shift in the U.S. stance, which until now had avoided direct military intervention in favor of a diplomatic solution. Nevertheless, given the Islamic terrorist regime's refusal to negotiate, the use of military force is the only remaining option.

According to data from the real-time monitoring site Flightradar24, as well as military sources and analyst reports, the Mediterranean sky is experiencing intense aerial activity. This movement could be linked to a concentration of offensive capabilities by the United States, in what appears to be a preparatory phase for possible military action.
The deployed aircraft
Some of the U.S. Air Force (USAF) aerial refueling tanker aircraft that had arrived Sunday at U.S. bases at RAF Mildenhall in the United Kingdom and Morón de la Frontera in Spain were detected Tuesday afternoon heading east over the Mediterranean Sea, according to confirmation from U.S. defense officials.
Military observers captured images of one of these aircraft at RAF Mildenhall as it was escorted by U.S. fighter jets taking off from RAF Lakenheath. Among the fighter jets are the F-16, F-22, and F-35.

During the same afternoon, the presence of several KC-135 Stratotanker aircraft—a model of in-flight refueling developed by Boeing—was identified, coming from both RAF Mildenhall and the U.S. air base at Morón. These aircraft were seen flying eastward over the Mediterranean, near the Italian peninsula, although their final destination remains unknown.
Additionally, it is known that other KC-135 units are deployed at various U.S. air bases in Europe, such as Ramstein (Germany), Aviano (Italy), and Chania-Souda Bay in Crete (Greece), with the aim of strengthening the operational capability of U.S. fighter jets in the Middle East region.
Meanwhile, the U.S. Air Force is awaiting President Donald Trump's order to act.
