"Sirens were heard at a British Royal Air Force (RAF) base in Cyprus as fighting in the Middle East was continuing. Footage shows the military base's exterior in the Akrotiri Sovereign Base Area while the sound of an alarm can be heard. The video also features an aircraft during landing at the base. This comes as UK Defence Secretary John Healey met his Cypriot counterpart Vasilis Palmas over a drone attack that hit the RAF base over the weekend. 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. On Wednesday, two Greek frigates arrived to Cyprus, with British and French naval units also expected to contribute to maritime patrols and counter-drone monitoring off the coast of the island. The United States and Israel launched attacks on Iran on February 28. Tehran responded with strikes targeting Israel and US assets across the region, with explosions reported in several countries across the Gulf. The escalation followed several rounds of talks between American and Iranian officials aimed at addressing tensions over Iran’s nuclear programme - Tehran has always insisted on its peaceful nature."
