Iran's revenge: US forces UK support in desperation as Israel’s defenses buckle under pressure?

As US–Israeli strikes hit Iran and Tehran fires missiles across the region, Keir Starmer steps up with a tightly calibrated message. The British Prime Minister stressed that the UK “played no role” in the strikes, branded Iran’s regime “utterly abhorrent,” and reminded viewers of plots on UK soil and threats to dissidents and the Jewish community. He condemned Iran’s attacks on Gulf partners, confirming British planes are in the sky on defensive missions, and said that UK bases are at maximum alert.
