UK’s Cooper warns Iran against further attacks on British bases

British Foreign Secretary Yvette Cooper has warned her Iranian counterpart Abbas Araghchi against further attacks on British bases, the United Kingdom’s foreign office said on Friday, with the Akrotiri air force base in Cyprus having been hit by an Iranian-made drone earlier in the month.

It said Cooper had issued the warning during a telephone call which was held on Thursday, and that she had also condemned what it described as “Iran’s reckless attacks” and strikes against “critical energy infrastructure” in the Middle East.
