The Mediterranean, the Persian Gulf, the Middle East. While in Gaza the fighting is on land – with tanks, engineers and infantry – at sea there is a coming and going of warships. Nuclear aircraft carriers, destroyers, helicopter carriers, patrol boats. From the United States to France, from Great Britain to Italy, which has queued up in these hours. They are the NATO forces that monitor the sea front where Israel faces. The risks of an escalation that could involve Iran and further inflame the region have pushed the powers of the Atlantic Alliance to flex their muscles. In support of Israel, certainly, and in support of evacuations and humanitarian aid. But also in defense of Europe. A sign of strength to keep any expansionist ambitions at bay. On the other hand, China’s eye is not lacking, albeit discreet and at a distance. Taking advantage of exercises already scheduled in Kuwait, it can have six warships at its disposal. A user on X, analyzing the livetracks of the boats, created a map capable of highlighting the massive naval presence throughout the area.
