US Marines train on USS Tripoli in Arabian Sea

The U.S. military continues to enforce President Donald Trump's naval blockade of Iran, with the forward-deployed amphibious assault ship USS Tripoli (LHA-7) operating in the Arabian Sea. CENTCOM has published images showing Marines from the 31st Marine Expeditionary Unit conducting close-quarters combat training aboard the vessel. The USS Tripoli is actively participating in the blockade operations against Iran, demonstrating ongoing U.S. military readiness in the region. These training exercises come amid heightened tensions between the United States and Iran.
