Iran War: The US is moving Patriot PAC-3 and THAAD missile defense systems from South Korea to the Middle East, a major shift as tensions with Iran rise. This is the first known redeployment of USFK assets to another region. With stealth bombers, aircraft carriers, and aerial assets repositioned, the Pentagon aims to strengthen deterrence against Iranian threats. The move follows Trumpās ultimatum to Tehran over its nuclear program. Experts suggest this is either a prelude to conflict or high-stakes brinkmanship as missile forces in Iran go on high alert.
