A Sunday night decision to send a US aircraft carrier back to the Persian Gulf was directed by President Donald Trump,\u00a0CNN reported<\/a>\u00a0on Monday, as a continued warning to Iran amid rising tensions with the United States and Israel.<\/span><\/p>\n

Last week, Secretary of Defense Christopher Miller had ordered the USS Nimitz out of the Middle East in what he said was a \u201cde-escalatory\u201d effort, but reversed that decision in an abrupt announcement Sunday evening.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

\u201cNo one should doubt the resolve of the United States of America,\u201d Miller said in a statement.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

The ship\u2019s arrival in the region came during a series of moves in recent weeks designed to warn Iran against any potential attack against American interests. The US also flew three bomber missions near Iran, and both American and Israeli submarines were spotted heading for the Gulf for the first time in years.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

On Monday, Iranian media reported that Iran\u2019s Revolutionary Guards Corps\u00a0seized a South Korean-flagged tanker<\/a>\u00a0in the body of water, in advance of a visit to Tehran by that country\u2019s foreign minister.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

\u201cThe South Korean tanker was stopped in the waters of the Persian Gulf environmental pollution and after neglecting warnings,\u201d the IRGC Navy said, according to the semi-official\u00a0Fars<\/i>\u00a0news agency.\u00a0\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Iran has demanded the release of $7 billion in funds frozen in South Korean banks due to US sanctions.<\/span><\/p>\n
