UK Government has closen not to reinforce bases in the Middle East. Runway damage to RAF Akrotiri has not prevented flight operations, with an F-35B filmed taking off earlier today. Ridiculous state of affairs. (Src: parliament.tv)

Last night, RAF Akrotiri was hit by an Iranian attack drone inflicting minor damage and no casualties. Hopefully we will now see the overdue decision to deploy Sky Sabre and HMS Duncan.
