"The UK’s RAF base at Akrotiri in Cyprus was hit by a suspected drone strike on Sunday night, amid US and Israeli military opperations against Iran. Footage from Monday shows the US Embassy in Nicosia with guards stationed outside. The video also shows views of the British Royal Air Force base at Akrotiri where security vehicles are seen entering and exiting the facility. Two more drones were reportedly intercepted on Monday morning. Akrotiri is one of two British bases retained in Cyprus since independence in 1960 and includes housing for military families. Following a 'suspected drone strike' authorities advised nearby residents to shelter in place, dispersing nonessential personnel while other British facilities continued operating normally. The base, situated on a southern peninsula, has previously supported operations in Iraq, Syria and Yemen. This comes after US and Israel first attacked Iran on Saturday morning. Tehran said it was responding with strikes on Israel and US assets in the region, with strikes reported in countries right across the Gulf region. On Sunday, Donald Trump confirmed that three US military personnel were killed and admitted that more deaths were 'likely' on the American side. Supreme Leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei was confirmed killed in a strike on Saturday. It comes after a number of rounds of negotiations between the Americans and Iranians in the preceding weeks."
