"The skies over a sequestered little town in Cyprus have been buzzing with the roar of planes since Monday, after a British military base in the Akrotiri Sovereign Base Area was targeted by a drone attack, drawing the country into the wider Middle East conflict. Footage shows the exterior of a Royal Air Force (RAF) base, with multiple aircraft flying over the village. Earlier on Sunday, a midnight drone attack on the British base caused limited damage, prompting a partial evacuation of the military facility. Two more drones were intercepted on Monday, believed to have been launched by the Hezbollah group in Lebanon. In response to the strike and the continued threat of ballistic missiles, the UK and its allies have significantly bolstered the island’s defences. The attacks come as the United States and Israel have been trading missiles with Iran since last weekend, following joint US-Israeli strikes on Tehran that killed Iranian Supreme Leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei, triggering a wider war in the Gulf."
