    The US Joint Chiefs of Staff has revealed that the United States is seeking to form an international military alliance to protect strategic waterways off the coast of Iran and Yemen.
    General Joseph Danford said on Tuesday the United States hoped to find friendly countries with the political will to set up a working group within the next two weeks. The proposed force would have an effective role to ensure freedom of navigation in vital trade routes.
    Last month saw the targeting of tankers in the Gulf region, and the United States blamed Iran. But Tehran has denied responsibility for the attacks.
    An Iranian Revolutionary Guard commander threatened the United States on Tuesday, saying US bases in the region and aircraft carriers in the Gulf were within range of Iranian missiles.
    Under the new US military plan, Washington will provide command and control vessels to the military alliance. The Allies will patrol escorts near American command ships and accompany merchant ships carrying their flags, according to Reuters.
    The chief of staff revealed details of the plan to reporters after meetings on this subject with Acting US Secretary of Defense Mark Esper and Foreign Minister Mike Pompeo.
    "We are reaching out to a number of countries to see if we can form an alliance that will guarantee freedom of navigation in both the Strait of Hormuz and Bab al-Mandeb," Danford said.
    "I think that perhaps in the next two weeks we will be able to identify countries that have the political will to support that initiative and then we will work directly with the armies to determine the specific military capabilities that will support this plan," Reuters reported.
