The Prime Minister provides an update following Iran’s attack on Israel last night.

He reiterated his condemnation of the attack and praised the bravery of the Royal Air Force pilots who took part in a coordinated effort to save lives.

We condemn Iran’s overnight escalation, call for restraint, and are monitoring developments closely. It is vital that the conflict in the Middle East does not spiral out of control.

Iran’s attack last night was a dangerous and unnecessary escalation.

I want to pay tribute to the professionalism and bravery of the Royal Air Force and our allies in protecting civilians.

The urgency with which we armed Ukraine taught us we can and must do better to arm our own warfighters. 

That’s why we’ve now reformed military procurement to get the weapons we need to defend the UK into the hands of our soldiers, sailors and aviators years ahead of schedule.

Losing this war will cost much, much more than backing Ukraine.
