reports come just a few weeks after the United States deployed an
aircraft carrier strike group and a bomber task force to the Persian
Gulf in what White House National Security Adviser John Bolton
described as a "clear and unmistakable message" to Iran.

warns Syrian regime following allegations of chemical weapons use
The
US State Department issued a warning to the government of Bashar
al-Assad in Syria on Tuesday, saying the US is closely watching the
regime's military operations against a rebel enclave in northwest
Syria and is looking into allegations that Assad's troops have used
chemical weapons in recent days.
"Unfortunately
we continue to see signs that the Assad regime may be renewing its

Bomb-laden
drone from Yemen rebels targets Saudi airport
Yemen’s
Iranian-allied Houthi rebels attacked a Saudi airport and military
base with a bomb-laden drone Tuesday, an assault acknowledged by the
kingdom as Middle East tensions remained high between Tehran and
Washington. There were no immediate reports of injuries or damage.
The
attack on the Saudi city of Najran came after Iran announced it has
quadrupled its uranium-enrichment production capacity, though still
at a level far lower than needed for atomic weapons, a year after the
U.S. withdrew from Iran’s nuclear deal with world powers.

These

of the Trump administration’s push to curtail the cash flow to
Maduro and his loyalists, two sources said on Tuesday, speaking on
condition of anonymity.
