President Trump Orders U.S. Navy Strike Force USS Carl Vinson To Waters Off North Korea As Tensions Mount • Now The End Begins

A U.S. Navy strike group will be moving toward the western Pacific
Ocean near the Korean peninsula as a show of force, a U.S. official told
Reuters on Saturday, as concerns grow about North Korea’s advancing
weapons program.

Earlier this month North Korea tested a liquid-fueled Scud missile which only traveled a fraction of its range.

The
strike group, called the USS Carl Vinson, includes an aircraft carrier
and will make its way from Singapore toward the Korean peninsula,
according to the official, who was not authorized to speak to the media
and requested anonymity.

“We feel the increased presence is
necessary,” the official said, citing North Korea’s worrisome behavior.
The news was first reported by Reuters.
