9:00Now PlayingChris Doyle, an expert on the Middle East, joined Matthew Wright to discuss the latest turn in Keir Starmer and Donald Trump's Iran strategy.
Iran has fired two ballistic missiles at the joint UK-US military base on Diego Garcia according to reports - just hours after the UK granted America access to its bases for "collective self-defence".
Iran is accused of firing the ballistic missiles at the base in the Chagos Islands, located in the Indian Ocean, overnight with the strikes confirmed by US officials on Saturday.
Reports suggest that neither of the two missiles hit their intended target, with one is believed to have been intercepted by a US warship, and the other failed mid-flight on Friday morning.
It follows the UK government confirming a shift in policy on the Iran conflict, with Downing Street noting an "agreement for the US to use UK bases in the collective self-defence of the region includes US defensive operations to degrade the missile sites and capabilities being used to attack ships in the Strait of Hormuz".
US President Donald Trump had previously announced he was 'winding down' action in the region - hours after confirming he was weighing up the idea of sending more than 2,500 US troops to the Middle East.
On Saturday, the Ministry of Defence condemned what it called “Iran’s reckless attacks”.
