Iran attacked U.S. and allied sites in Bahrain, Iraq, and Cyprus in March 2026, prompting UK defense responses and evacuations.
In March 2026, Iran launched a wave of missile and drone attacks across the Middle East in retaliation for the killing of Supreme Leader Ayatollah Khamenei, targeting U.S. and allied sites in Bahrain, Iraq, and elsewhere.
British military personnel in Bahrain were within 200 meters of a strike, with no casualties reported, while UK forces intercepted threats in Iraq and Cyprus.
The UK reinforced regional defenses, deployed aircraft, and raised alert levels, though it did not join U.S. and Israeli strikes.
Attacks damaged civilian infrastructure, disrupted air travel, and prompted evacuations.
UK Defence Secretary John Healey condemned the attacks as indiscriminate, emphasized defensive operations, and warned of ongoing risks to British personnel and civilians.
