Times of Israel:: US President Donald Trump confirms that a “massive fleet” of US military vessels is heading toward Iran, while reiterating his hope they won’t have to use force.
Speaking to reporters aboard Air Force One, Trump again claims that Iran scrapped plans to execute 837 protesters in response to his threats on the matter. “They said that they canceled it. They didn’t postpone it.”
“We have a massive fleet heading in that direction, and maybe we won’t have to use it,” he says, adding that he’s watching developments in the Islamic Republic “very closely. #Iran international:: 4 hours ago

A US military formation including the aircraft carrier USS Abraham Lincoln, several destroyers and warplanes is set to arrive in the Middle East in the coming days, Reuters reported on Thursday citing two US officials.
The strike group has been en route from the Asia-Pacific region even after US President Donald Trump mooted diplomacy in the wake of an Iranian crackdown on protests which has left thousands dead.
Washington was weighing the deployment of additional air defense systems in the region, the news agency cited one of the officials as saying.
Trump this week said he relented from an attack after Iran stood down on plans to execute 837 protestors and that Washington will hold talks with Tehran, without elaborating.”Rais wa Marekani Donald Trump amethibitisha kuwa "meli kubwa" za meli za kijeshi za Marekani zinaelekea Iran, huku akisisitiza matumaini yake kwamba hazitalazimika kutumia nguvu. Akizungumza na waandishi wa habari ndani ya Air Force One, Trump anadai tena kwamba Iran ilifutilia mbali mipango ya kuwanyonga waandamanaji 837 kutokana na vitisho vyake kuhusu suala hilo. "Walisema kwamba wameghairi. Hawakuiahirisha." "Tuna meli kubwa inayoelekea upande huo, na labda hatutahitaji kuitumia," anasema, akiongeza kwamba anaangalia maendeleo katika Jamhuri ya Kiislamu "kwa karibu sana."
