  "summary": "The USS Abraham Lincoln, a US Navy aircraft carrier, sailed past Singapore early on Sunday, August 30, 2026, as it headed home after a nine-month deployment in the Middle East. According to CBS News and Khaosod English, the vessel was spotted transiting waters near Singapore just after 1 a.m. local time by Associated Press journalists on the Indonesian island of Batam, across the Singapore Strait.\n\nThe Lincoln, one of the US Navy's largest warships, supported the US war against Iran, as reported by Khaosod English and Associated Press. Its deployment included a record-setting uninterrupted time at sea of more than 250 days. Concerns have grown about the Lincoln's lengthy deployment, with reports of deteriorating mental health among the crew and shortages of supplies, including food and hygiene products, according to Khaosod English.\n\nThe USS Abraham Lincoln is expected to stop in Thailand for a port visit, with Thai officials saying it will stop for rest and recovery before returning to its US base, as reported by Khaosod English and Associated Press.",
