Report Claims Iran Damage to US Logistics Base Disrupted Naval Operations

A report citing sources familiar with the matter claims that Iranian strikes extensively damaged a US logistics base used to support ships in the Arabian Sea. The alleged damage reportedly disrupted regional supply routes, forcing critical materials to be flown to more distant bases before reaching the operational area. The report also says morale aboard the USS Abraham Lincoln has fallen, with some sailors contacting relatives about conditions on the carrier. President Donald Trump and Defence Secretary Pete Hegseth have denied the claims. Meanwhile, the Pentagon is reportedly moving the USS George Washington from the Pacific to the Middle East to relieve the USS Abraham Lincoln. If confirmed, the redeployment could reduce the US military presence in Asia at a time of heightened tensions involving China and North Korea.
