Foreign secretary denounces 'reckless Iran threats' after missiles fired at Diego Garcia

Iran launched ballistic missiles at Diego Garcia, a strategic U.S. military base in the Indian Ocean, according to reports, though neither weapon reached its target. Diego Garcia hosts critical American military infrastructure, including bombers and surveillance aircraft, and serves as a key hub for U.S. operations across the Middle East and Indo-Pacific. The unsuccessful attack marks an escalation in Iran's willingness to directly target American installations, moving beyond its previous pattern of proxy attacks or strikes on allies. The failed strike underscores regional tensions and raises questions about Iran's capability to execute long-range strikes against hardened military targets. The incident occurs amid broader U.S.-Iran hostilities and could trigger a military response from the Trump administration.
