British Military Reinforcement in Cyprus
February 7, 2026
Britain is boosting its military presence in Cyprus due to concerns over a potential U.S. attack on Iran. Specifically, six F-35B jets have been sent to support the Akrotiri base. These jets will join the Typhoon aircraft already carrying out missions in the region. The situation is tense with significant negotiations ongoing between the U.S. and Iran. Reports suggest that both sides will continue discussions despite the political tensions.
