According to reports, satellite images indicate the complete absence of US military ships at the base where the US Navy's 5th Operational Fleet is stationed in Bahrain. This was reported by zamon uz here.
Monitoring data suggests that several warships, four mine sweepers, and a special operations ship previously anchored in the base's waters are now absent. Official information regarding their exact whereabouts has not been provided.
Experts explain this movement as part of a security strategy used during times of heightened tensions. Dispersing military ships — temporarily repositioning them away from conflict-prone areas — is employed by various fleets as a preparatory and precautionary measure in response to conflicts.
It is particularly worth noting that the naval base in Bahrain holds strategic importance in the Persian Gulf region, being situated close to Iran's southern coast. This base serves as a crucial operational center not only for the US but also for the British naval forces.
