New York: The ongoing military conflict between America and Iran now seems to be reaching such a point where the fear of a wider regional war is increasing. America has intensified its military preparations amid increased tension over the Strait of Hormuz. In this sequence, President Donald Trump administration has decided to deploy special air refuelling aircraft to strengthen Israel's military capability. Experts believe that this step could be a sign of preparation for a major military operation.
According to reports, America has started preparations to provide air-to-air refuelling aircraft to Israel. With the help of these aircraft, Israeli fighter planes can fly long distances without returning to the ground again and again and will also be able to attack distant military targets. It is believed that if the conflict escalates further, this capability will prove to be very important for Israel.
The Strait of Hormuz, one of the world's most important maritime trade routes, remains a major centre of conflict at present. A large part of the global oil supply passes through this route. Iran has already warned that if pressure is increased on it, it can further tighten its control over this sea route. In such a situation, there may be a sharp rise in the prices of crude oil in the international market and the energy supply of many countries may be affected.
Analysts believe that America is continuously strengthening its military presence instead of limiting itself to just retaliatory action. American warships, fighter aircraft and missile defence systems are already deployed in the Gulf region. Now sending additional military aid to Israel is being considered part of this strategy. Although the US administration has not officially announced any major attack, the increase in military activities has given further impetus to the speculation.
Iran has consistently said that if its interests are attacked, it will not only respond directly to the attack but can also retaliate through its allies across the region. On the other hand, Israel has already made it clear that it will not shy away from responding to any threat to its security. In such a situation, America's active participation has further increased the tension in the entire Middle East.
The whole world is keeping an eye on the constantly changing situation in the Middle East. This conflict can have a direct impact on the energy market, global trade and regional security. If military action between America, Israel and Iran intensifies further, its impact will not be limited only to the Gulf region but can also be seen on the economy and diplomatic balance of the entire world. In such a situation, the coming days are considered very important to decide the direction of this struggle.
