Rishi Sunak confirmed that RAF Typhoons shot down Iranian drones, assisting in saving lives in Israel and nearby Arab nations.
Sunak praised the courage and professionalism of the pilots involved in protecting civilians from danger.
Although Britain has military agreements with Israel, they’re not obligated to intervene if Israel is attacked. However, Sunak cited that Britain’s involvement was about saving lives in Israel and neighbouring countries like Jordan, likening it to the ongoing campaign against ISIS in Iraq and Syria.
Legally, the prime minister can initiate military actions without parliamentary approval, using powers delegated from the monarch.
