France will send a "Charles de Gaulle" nuclear aircraft carrier into the Persian Gulf, according to Israeli media.

It is expected that in March-April at least four U.S. and French aircraft carrier battle groups will be placed in East of Persian Gulf, Trend reported citing Interfax.

As of now, U.S. carrier "Abraham Lincoln" is present in the Gulf, along with the missile cruiser, two U.S. Navy destroyers and two ships, each from British and French Navy.

Another battle group led by U.S. Navy "Carl Vinson" nuclear aircraft carrier is placed in the East of Hormuz Strait, in the northern Arabian Sea washing the southeast coast of Iran.

In March, one more aircraft carrier battle group led by "Enterprise" carrier will go into the Gulf.

U.S. and its allies began to transfer their troops to the Persian Gulf. The troops were reported to arrive at the Omani island Masirah, located south of the Strait of Hormuz, where the U.S. Air Force base is deployed. A U.S. base on the British island of Diego Garcia in the Indian Ocean brought hundreds of concrete-bomb capable of destroying fortified underground bunkers.
