US EditionIran Fires Ballistic Missiles at Diego Garcia Base
Iran fired two ballistic missiles at Diego Garcia base; one was intercepted by a US warship and the other failed, showing extended-range missile capability, officials said.
- On Saturday, Iran fired two intermediate-range ballistic missiles toward the Diego Garcia joint US-UK military base, and said its Natanz nuclear facility was hit in an airstrike with no radiation leakage as the International Atomic Energy Agency urged restraint.
- The British government has said it will provide only defensive support while approving U.S. use of two bases, and the U.S. military has struck more than 8,000 targets, Admiral Brad Cooper said.
- Analysts said the strike reached about 4,000 km, roughly double the previously assumed 2,000 km range, and The Wall Street Journal reported possible modified or reduced-payload intermediate-range ballistic missiles.
- The International Atomic Energy Agency said no abnormal radiation was detected, and G7 foreign ministers pledged support for energy and maritime security.
- With oil prices climbing and fuel shortages feared, Israel's defence minister warned of a surge in attacks, while US Central Command reported more than 8000 targets struck, highlighting escalation risks.
