JAKARTA - The United States (US) Department of War has begun deploying its fighter jets to the Middle East.

This follows US President Donald Trump's ambition to build up strength in the region with the open option of attacking Iran.

The Wall Street Journal (WSJ) reported that a source said the Pentagon had begun deploying additional air defense systems in the Middle East, including Patriot and Thaad missile systems.

The deployment of US military hardware is necessary to fend off possible retaliation from Iran if the US attacks.

According to sources, F-15E fighter jets have also landed in Jordan on January 18.
