据美国官员透露，五角大楼正向中东派遣第三个航母打击群以及更多的海军陆战队舰艇，为该地区增兵9,000至10,000人。此前，特朗普总统正考虑在中期选举后恢复对伊朗的打击。
The Pentagon is sending a third aircraft-carrier strike group and additional Marine Corps ships to the Middle East, according to U.S. officials, adding 9,000 to 10,000 more troops to the region as President Trump considers renewing strikes on Iran after the midterm elections.
官员们表示，这些军舰、战斗机、海军陆战队员和水兵将于11月底前抵达该地区。《华尔街日报》报道称，特朗普最近告诉助手，他预计将在同月恢复对伊朗的轰炸。
The ships, jet fighters, Marines and sailors will arrive in the region by the end of November, the officials said. Trump recently told aides that he expects to resume bombing Iran that same month, The Wall Street Journal reported.
