The United States is sending a small number of additional troops to the Middle East as tensions escalate, but the Pentagon has declined to specify the precise number or mission of the deployed forces.

The Commerce Department has proposed prohibiting key Chinese software and hardware in connected vehicles on American roads due to national security concerns.
