Two American B-52H Stratofortress strategic bombers capable of carrying nuclear weapons flew towards Iran from the British airbase. This is reported by RIA Novosti, referring to publicly available flight data.
According to the data studied, at 13.55 Moscow time they took off from the British Air Force base in Fairford in England. The end point of the route of the bombers is not disclosed.
An hour ago, the B-52H Stratofortress was in The Mediterranean Sea near the southern coast of Sicily and headed east.
As reported by EADaily, British Prime Minister Keir Starmer announced earlier that he had accepted the US request to use British military bases to attack missile depots in Iran. Since then, about ten American strategic bombers have been transferred to the base in Fairford.
