Play VideoWASHINGTON, D.C. —  The Pentagon says the US is sending an additional 1,000 troops to the Mideast in response to “hostile behavior” by Iranian forces.This comes as commanders try to bolster security for forces and allies in the region from what authorities say is a growing threat from Iran.Officials say the deployment includes security forces and troops for additional surveillance and intelligence gathering in the region.The troops are part of a broader military package of options that were initially laid out to U.S. leaders late last month, totaling as much as 10,000 forces, Patriot missile batteries, aircraft and ships.The latest decision comes as Secretary of State Mike Pompeo and other top officials reach out to leaders in Asia and Europe to convince them that Iran was behind alleged attacks on shipping along a Middle East oil route.RELATED STORIESUS releases video it claims shows Iran removing unexploded mine from Gulf tankerOhio National Guard soldiers heading to Middle East as Trump approves additional deployment to counter IranTRADEMARK AND COPYRIGHT 2019 THE ASSOCIATED PRESS.
