The Prime Minister has now given the green light for the United States to use British bases, to attack Iranian sites which are themselves being used to target the Strait.
President Trump didn’t seem that impressed, saying that the UK should have acted faster. It certainly hasn’t gone down well in Iran.
The country’s foreign minister said Keir Starmer’s actions are putting British lives in danger.
Meanwhile ITV News reports from southern Lebanon, where the Israeli military has ordered an evacuation zone over a vast swath of the country.
There constant airstrikes by Israel targeting Hezbollah have killed more than one thousand people, while more than a million have been displaced from their homes.
