Iran: Armed Conflict
The question
To ask the Secretary of State for Defence, whether his Department monitors the outcomes of individual strikes on Iran by the United States when using UK military bases, including monitoring for civilian casualties or damage to civilian objects.
Answered by Al Carns
The agreement allowing the US to use UK military bases is for specific and limited defensive action against missile facilities in Iran which were involved in launching strikes at regional allies and ships in the Strait of Hormuz. For operational security reasons, we do not offer comment or information relating to foreign nations’ military operations.
