U.S. President Donald Trump claims Iran’s president wanted a ceasefire ahead of his speech to the American people. Trump made the claim Wednesday on his Truth Social website. Iran’s Foreign Ministry spokesperson said Trump’s remarks were “false and baseless.” Meanwhile, two U.S. officials say the aircraft carrier USS George H.W. Bush is slated to go to the Middle East along with three destroyers. The carrier strike group consists of more than 6,000 sailors. It comes as thousands of soldiers from the 82nd Airborne Division have also begun arriving in the Middle East, according to two other U.S. officials.
