USS Abraham Lincoln heads to Thailand for a brief stop after lengthy deployment at sea

The U.S. aircraft carrier USS Abraham Lincoln will visit Thailand after its lengthy deployment at sea, according to Thai officials. The Lincoln, which was supporting the U.S. war against Iran, spent over 250 days at sea without interruption. Concerns arose about the carrier's mental health crew and supply shortages, including food and hygiene products.

A Thai government source confirmed that the Lincoln will make a brief stop in Thailand for rest and recuperation, although no specific port or arrival date was disclosed due to security concerns. The U.S. Navy did not comment on the matter. While recent tensions between the U.S. and Iran have eased, the Navy maintains a blockade on Iranian ports in the Strait of Hormuz, and the Trump administration has not provided clarity on winding down the war.
