Iran: Armed Conflict
The question
To ask the Secretary of State for Defence, what assessment his Department has made of the potential impact of the UK being directly attacked by Iran on the security of the North of Scotland.
Answered by Al Carns
The Department continually assesses a wide range of potential threats to the UK, including hostile activity by state actors. Whilst we do not comment on specific intelligence for security reasons, the UK maintains robust, multi layered defences designed to protect the whole of the country, including the North of Scotland.
