A Brit Special Forces base in Iraq was hit by a barrage of drones last night as top UK generals confirmed that Russia was “definitely” helping Iran. American troops suffered casualties but no British forces were hurt. Details emerged as John Healey said he was planning for mass evacuations of the Middle East inferno. The Defence Secretary also hinted at sending warships to defend the Strait of Hormuz. And he revealed that military investigators were looking for “Russian components” in the wreckage of a Shahed drone that hit RAF Akrotiri in Cyprus last week.
