President Trump is reportedly weighing the deployment of thousands of additional US troops to the Middle East that could potentially be used on the ground in Iran.
The Trump administration has discussed using ground forces on Iranian shores to secure the Strait of Hormuz and Kharg Island, Reuters reported on Wednesday.
The Pentagon is believed to have already authorized the deployment of additional Marines and warships to the Middle East as Iran continues to attack oil tankers near the Strait of Hormuz, the Wall Street Journal reported last week.
