Iran warns UK of danger as Trump authorized US strikes
Iranian Foreign Minister Abbas Araghchi has stated that allowing Donald Trump to use United Kingdom military bases for operations against his nation is putting "British lives in danger." While the German government recently permitted American forces access to these territories, Iran declared it will exercise its legitimate right of self-defense if further attacks occur. The top official criticized British Prime Minister Keir Starmer's decision as a direct threat during what he described an ongoing war between Tehran and Washington-based aggressors on UK soil.
