British Prime Minister Keir Starmer has condemned the Iranian drone and missile strikes targeting the United Arab Emirates (UAE), Reuters reports.
Starmer called on Iran to engage in diplomacy to prevent further escalation in the Middle East, the prime minister’s office said.
“We stand in solidarity with the UAE and will continue to support the defence of our partners in the Gulf. This escalation must cease. Iran needs to engage meaningfully in negotiations to ensure the ceasefire in the Middle East endures, and a long-term diplomatic solution is achieved,” Starmer said.
