The United Kingdom has reportedly declined a U.S. request to use key British Royal Air Force bases — including RAF Fairford and Diego Garcia — for potential air operations linked to escalating tensions with Iran.

British officials are said to be concerned about possible violations of international law and the risk of being drawn directly into a U.S.-led military confrontation. The decision reflects London’s cautious approach as tensions between Washington and Tehran continue to intensify.

The move has reportedly created diplomatic strain between the UK and the United States. Some American political figures, including Donald Trump, have criticized Britain’s stance and linked the disagreement to broader strategic issues, including discussions surrounding the Chagos Islands.

While both nations remain close allies, the situation highlights growing differences over how to handle rising instability in the Middle East. Analysts say the disagreement could test alliance unity at a sensitive geopolitical moment.$BTC
