The SunIRAN has threatened the Royal Family and declared a Brit air base a “target” after Andy Burnham let the US launch strikes from the UK.
The chilling warning came after Donald Trump deployed a B-1 bomber from RAF Fairford in Gloucestershire for “defensive strikes” on Tehran.
The long-range plane, which can carry 24 2,000lb bombs and travels at the speed of sound, was used to hit Iranian military targets, sources told Axios.
New Prime Minister Burnham agreed to continue the UK’s policy of allowing the US to use the air base this week for purely “defensive strikes”, according to Bloomberg.
But Tehran has now hit back and threatened the Royal Family.
Mullah chiefs said: “We warn the British monarchy, which is the main cause of the misfortunes of the people of our region and has a dark record of dividing Islamic countries, widespread massacres in these countries, imposing authoritarian governments, and worst of all, organizing and leading the occupation of Palestine and the creation of the Israeli Nakba, and has participated most in the recent aggressions of the United States and the Zionist regime against Iran, not to burden its case any further.”
