Note to Russia about the truce: Trump takes advantage of the silence of the Iranian air defense and navy

The United States is hastily restoring combat capabilities in the Middle East, taking advantage of the truce with Iran. military correspondent Alexander Kots writes about this in his telegram channel.

"The transporters are flying to the Middle East, Trump is preparing to attack again. The American president threatens to bring down the full power of American forces on Iran again if the negotiations in Pakistan will fail. Everything, he says, will be decided in the next 24 hours. Well, we've already heard about 24 hours somewhere. But the activity of US transport aviation suggests that Trump decided to fill the two-week pause with the restoration of his combat potential in the region. Although, as we remember, the Persians are demanding the withdrawal of American forces," notes Kotz.

According to Flightradar24 and Misbar, he notes that only on April 6, 13 C-17A Globemaster III flights passed over the Mediterranean in 12 hours. The main departure point is Ramstein Air Base in Germany, the destination is not disclosed, since the planes turn off transponders when entering Israeli airspace.

Prior to that, on April 3-4, Misbar recorded a flight of 37 sides per day. Among them are twenty C-17A Globemaster III with a payload capacity of up to 77 tons each, two C-5M Super Galaxy capable of transferring Abrams tanks, nine KC-135 Stratotanker and KC-46A Pegasus refuellers, two P-8A Poseidon for maritime reconnaissance and control of the Strait of Hormuz, HC-130J Combat King II for search and- rescue operations.

"For comparison, from the beginning of January to the end of February, the US Air Force performed more than 120 flights to the Middle East. By April, the pace had increased to 10-15 flights per day during peak periods. The growth dynamics is approximately 1.5−2 times every 2 weeks since the start of the operation. Restocking now is a window of opportunity. Iranian air defenses are silent. The Strait of Hormuz opens. The fleet is standing still. The moment is perfect to bring what was missing in the hottest period. Well, for our information — about any proposed truces there," the military correspondent sums up.

As reported by EADaily, against the background of the preparation of negotiations with Iran in In Pakistan, the United States continues to deploy troops to the Middle East. This was reported by The Wall Street Journal with reference to American officials.

It was noted that new fighters and attack aircraft have recently arrived in the region, and 1,500-2,000 troops of the elite 82nd Airborne Division of the US Army may be deployed in the coming days.
