The region is under growing tension from the United States and Gulf states on the one hand, and Iran on the other, by Tehran abandoning some of its commitments to the nuclear program (concluded in 2015) after Washington withdrew from it, as well as Saudi accusations of targeting oil facilities through the Yemeni Houthi group.
Tensions have risen recently after the Pentagon announced the dispatch of the Abraham Lincoln aircraft carrier and Middle East bombers to intelligence about possible preparations by Iran to carry out attacks against US forces or interests.
