The aircraft carrier USS Abraham Lincoln left Thailand on Sunday after a five-day port visit that gave its crew a break from an extended deployment, Reuters reported. The Lincoln took part in the U.S. naval blockade and combat operations in the war with Iran.
Why it matters
Reuters did not report the carrier's next destination; whether it returns to the Middle East will show how Washington sustains its blockade force.
