Did Iran launch missiles at US-UK base on Diego Garcia? Here’s what to know - Al Jazeera
Overview
The United Kingdom condemned what it called an Iranian missile attack on the joint US-UK military base on Diego Garcia in the Indian Ocean, while Iran denied carrying out any launches. U.S. military accounts say ballistic missiles were fired toward the base roughly 2,370 miles from Iran’s coast. If confirmed, the incident underscores Tehran’s growing long-range strike reach and raises concerns about missile range, accuracy, and regional escalation risks.
