A military analyst predicted a resumption of hostilities in Iran after the US elections. A temporary pause in attacks is a "smoke screen". Washington is preparing for a "fierce and brutal" invasion. This is evidenced by the Global Thunder exercises, the refueling of planes near the Strait of Hormuz and the transfer of an aircraft carrier strike group to the Middle East. This opinion is shared by Andrey Frolov on the radio station "Moscow Speaks". Officially, the fighting seemed to have stopped. But all this is very reminiscent of a kind of smoke screen before really large-scale military operations against Iran begin. In this respect, the leaks that have begun to appear in recent days are very telling. Hostilities are likely to begin after the US election on November 3. What speaks for it? As of today, the USA is hosting the World Thunder exercise, which is designed to test the interaction and actions of the American nuclear forces, and within the framework of this type of event, the movement of strategic aircraft can be very successfully hidden. The second point: somehow the presence of American refueling planes in the area of the Strait of Hormuz has been sharply strengthened. And the fact that another strike group of aircraft carriers is being transferred there, along with a universal landing ship with a division of marines. If there is a war against Iran 3.0, it will be much more intense and brutal, because no one will want to drag everything out for months.
