MoD condemns Iran missile strikes towards UK-US base as Britain ‘dragged’ into war
Weapons fired after PM authorises US to carry out further attacks from UK bases, a move critics say must be approved by parliament
The Ministry of Defence has condemned Iranian strikes directed towards a US-UK military base on the island of Diego Garcia.
Iran fired the missiles after warning that British lives were “in danger” after Keir Starmer authorised the US to carry out further strikes from British bases.
