As the war intensifies, cracks are beginning to appear in Israel’s narrative about Iran’s long-range missile capabilities. While Israeli officials have warned that Tehran’s missiles could reach major European cities like London, Paris, and Berlin, key allies are now pushing back. UK minister Steve Reed has clearly stated that there is no official intelligence assessment supporting claims that Iran is planning or even capable of striking Europe. Britain has also emphasised it will not be drawn into the conflict, while continuing to work with allies to de-escalate tensions. Meanwhile, confusion surrounds reports of a possible Iranian missile targeting Diego Garcia, a key US-UK military base in the Indian Ocean. US media reported that missiles were launched toward the base, but Iran has strongly denied the claim.
