The aircraft carrier Nimitz and its strike group have returned to the Persian Gulf region amid rising tensions with Iran over the killing of a top nuclear scientist, the Pentagon and the U.S. 5th Fleet said.
The announcement about the carrier’s deployment came as Iran vowed retaliation for the ambush east of Tehran that killed nuclear scientist Mohsen Fakhrizadeh.
He is the top Iranian nuclear scientist who was the father of the Iranian nuclear program. Iran has blamed Israel for the killing along with the US, and Iranian President Hassan Rouhani has said that the country would respond to the assassination of Fakhrizadeh in their time.
Officials at the US Pentagon said that the deployment of the Nimitz ensures we have sufficient capability available to respond to any threat and to deter any adversary.
Meanwhile Israel has put its embassies around the world on high alert after the Iranian threats of retaliation following the killing of the nuclear scientist near Tehran, according to Israeli news.
Fakhrizadeh’s death came near the 10-year anniversary of the killing of Iranian nuclear scientist Majid Shahriari, which Iran also blamed on Israel.
And earlier this year, the U.S. carried out an airstrike that killed Qasem Soleimani, Iran’s top military commander. As these events have caused tensions to soar between Iran and Israel, and the United States.
The Biblical prophecies (Matthew 24, Luke 21) foretell that wars and rumors of wars will be a sign of the Last Days indicating the nearing end of this age.
These events and conditions happening now are warning signs pointing to the nearing fulfillment of the Last Days prophecies at the end of this age revealing it’s time to prepare now for the nearing appearance of Jesus Christ for His Church by being born again spiritually into the Kingdom of God as Jesus said we must (John 3) and His Apostles who were authorized (Matthew 16:19) described how (Acts 2).
