(Patria) - The United States has begun using British bases for certain operations against Iran in the Middle East war, the British government announced.
The British Ministry of Defence said that the United States has begun using military locations for "certain defensive operations to prevent Iran from firing missiles in the region."
British Prime Minister Keir Starmer angered US President Donald Trump because he initially refused to have any role in the US-Israeli war with Iran, which began on February 28.
He later agreed to the US request to use two British military bases for "certain and limited defensive purposes." These bases are located in Fairford in Gloucestershire in western England, while the British-American base Diego Garcia is located on the Chagos Islands in the Indian Ocean.
A US Air Force B-1 Lancer bomber landed in Fairford on Saturday. A US C-5 Galaxy aircraft could also be seen on the base's runway, while anti-war protesters demonstrated outside.
