USS Gerald R. Ford to leave Middle East in coming days

The USS Gerald R. Ford aircraft carrier and its accompanying strike group are expected to leave the Middle East in the coming days, the Washington Post reported Wednesday.

Axar.az informs the move is "an expected relief for roughly 4,500 sailors who have been deployed for 10 months -- but a loss of significant firepower as peace talks between the United States and Iran stagnate," said the report.

It is one of three carriers operating in the Middle East region, alongside USS George H.W. Bush and USS Abraham Lincoln.
