Reuters WASHINGTON (Reuters) - A U.S. aircraft carrier sailed through the Strait
of Hormuz and into the Gulf without incident on Sunday, a day after Iran
backed away from an earlier threat to take action if an American carrier
returned to the strategic waterway.
The carrier USS Abraham Lincoln completed a "regular and routine"
passage through the strait, a critical gateway for the region's oil
exports, "as previously scheduled and without incident," said Lieutenant
Rebecca Rebarich, a spokeswoman for the U.S. Fifth Fleet.
