Keir Starmer Faces Commons Questions After Trump Critiques UK Support on Iran Conflict

Starmer faces criticism for resisting immediate UK military support in Iran conflict; oil prices remain above $100 per barrel amid regional tensions, officials said.

  • The Prime Minister will face questions in the Commons after the US President accused him of making a 'big mistake' by not supporting US military action to reopen the Strait of Hormuz.
  • Oil prices remain above $100 per barrel due to Tehran's blockade of the Strait, and Britain could potentially provide mine-hunting drones to the mission.
  • Israel said it killed two senior Iranian security officials, and Iran retaliated with missiles and drones against its Gulf Arab neighbours and Israel.
