US bomber lands in UK after warning of surge in strikes on Iran

AI Summary
A US B-1 Lancer bomber landed at RAF Fairford in the UK after the US warned of a potential surge in strikes on Iran. The UK Prime Minister granted permission for the US to launch defensive actions against Iranian missile sites from UK bases, specifically Fairford and Diego Garcia. This decision followed warnings from the US Defense Secretary about increased military activity and came amidst escalating tensions, including Israeli airstrikes in Tehran and retaliatory Iranian strikes. The Prime Minister's decision to allow defensive strikes from UK bases followed a top secret national security meeting last Friday. While the Prime Minister claims full support, reports suggest initial cabinet opposition to the decision.
