Will a U.S. aircraft carrier be at sea and operating in the Indo‑Pacific?

🤖 Context

YES if no later than September 1, 2026, two or more independent reputable news organizations report that at least one U.S. aircraft carrier was at sea and conducting operations within the Asia‑Pacific/Indo‑Pacific region. Official statements from the U.S. Navy or U.S. Indo‑Pacific Command count toward this. Carriers in drydock, formally decommissioned, or undergoing maintenance in port do not count. A carrier on regional transit or deployed at sea counts if reported by the outlets. Otherwise NO.
