U.S. refueling aircraft and warships have been dispatched to safeguard U.S. interests as the deadly conflict shows no sign of abating.

Israel and Iran intensified their deadly air strikes Monday on the fifth day after Israel launched its first attack to dismantle Iran's nuclear capability.

The conflict between Israel and Iran has forced many countries in the Middle East to close their airspace, as Israeli jets and Iranian exploding drones and missiles fly over their night skies.

The U.S. military has moved a large number of refueling aircraft to Europe to provide options to President Donald Trump as Middle East tensions erupt into conflict between Iran and Israel, two U.S. officials told Reuters on Monday,

A White House official said President Trump had decided not to sign onto a statement drafted for Group of 7 allies that urges restraint from both Israel and Iran, which have been trading attacks for days.

The White House and Israeli Ministry of Foreign Affairs did not immediately respond to The Post’s request for comment.

Messages passed by Tehran through intermediaries seek a return to talks if the U.S. stays out of the fight.

The dollar held ground in choppy trading on Monday, as investors monitored the fighting between Israel and Iran for signs that it could escalate into a broader regional conflict and braced for a week packed with central bank meetings.
