The daring, action-movie style rescue operation seems to have reinforced the ‘leave no man behind’ policy of the US military, where they risk anything and go to unbelievable lengths to rescue their personnel. It is already being hailed as one of the most sophisticated and challenging CSAR operations in the history of modern warfare. 

In a national address, PM Starmer said, “The conflict in the Middle East has now entered a second month. And while we are working at pace for de-escalation and peace, it is now clear that the impact of this war will affect the future of our country. So today, I want to reassure the British people that no matter how fierce this storm……we are well-placed to weather it and that we have a long-term plan to emerge from it a stronger and more secure nation.”

During a media interaction at the White House on Tuesday, Trump said, “We'll be leaving very soon. I would say within two weeks, maybe three. We knocked out a tremendous amount of missile-making facilities.”

A CNN report published last week says that around 2,000 to 4,000 paratroopers from the elite 82nd Airborne Division were being flown in as an “Immediate Response Force” prepared for quick insertion operations, in addition to over 4,000 Marines and sailors onboard USS Tripoli and USS Boxer (2,500 Marines and sailors).
