US Makes Show of Force to Iran by Deploying Guided-Missile Submarine

The US Navy deployed a guided-missile submarine capable of carrying 154 Tomahawk missiles to the Middle East amid tensions with Iran.
The submarine's mission and reason for deployment were not disclosed, but it is seen as a warning to Iran.
The rare deployment of the submarine comes as US-Iran tensions have increased due to various factors including Iran's arming of Russian forces.
The submarine patrols the Strait of Hormuz, a crucial waterway that Iran has threatened to close.
