US forces targeted Iran for a 13th night as Tehran threatened a UK airbase used by American troops and officials noted an operational stalemate.

US forces conducted a 13th consecutive night of airstrikes against targets in Iran, with Iranian media reporting explosions in Khuzestan province, near Qeshm Island, and around Bandar. The continued bombardment comes amid analysis highlighting the limits of the air campaign, with an American official describing the military situation as a stalemate.

Concurrently, the British government declared it is prepared to defend against Iranian missile attacks following threats from the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps targeting RAF Fairford, an airbase utilised by US forces. The Guard also issued threats against the British monarchy. Despite increased American military pressure, Iranian authorities have shown no signs of yielding.
