• White House Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt said on Tuesday that US President Donald Trump will address the nation on Wednesday night to provide an “important update” on Iran.
• The United States is sending a third aircraft carrier strike group to the Middle East, with the USS George H.W. Bush set to join the USS Abraham Lincoln and USS Gerald R. Ford already operating in the region, The Wall Street Journal reported on Tuesday citing US officials.
