US-Iran War LIVE: UK Allows US To Use British Bases Against Iran For ‘Limited Defensive Purpose’
UK Prime Minister Keir Starmer announced the UK will allow US forces to use British bases, including RAF Akrotiri in Cyprus, for targeted strikes on Iranian missile storage and launch sites. This move aims to counter Iran’s escalating attacks threatening British lives and regional allies, with 200,000 UK citizens in the Middle East at risk.
Starmer framed it as limited defensive action in collective self-defense, noting British jets have already intercepted Iranian strikes. Hours later, Akrotiri faced a suspected Iranian drone hit causing minor damage but no injuries.
The decision draws backlash from Labour’s left wing, Lib Dems, and Greens, who call it illegal and demand parliamentary vote amid fears of deeper US-led conflict. Conservatives push for stronger Trump support. The UK won’t endorse or condemn prior US strikes killing 48 Iranian leaders, including Supreme Leader Ali Khamenei, but labels Iran a terror sponsor.
Government preps potential Briton evacuations as tensions rise.
