From the New York Post: An arsenal of US stealth bombers is expected to soon reach UK military bases as President Trump warned Iran that “the big one” could be imminent.
American B-2 stealth bombers were slated to land at air bases at Diego Garcia in the Chagos Islands and RAF Fairford in Gloucestershire after the British government initially rejected the Trump administration’s request to carry out strikes from the bases, according to reports.
But Prime Minister Keir Starmer later reversed course, allowing the US fleet to use UK runways within “a matter of days,” the Telegraph reported Wednesday.
He granted permission to use the sites for limited defensive purposes after Iran started shooting indiscriminately at allies in the Middle East, the outlet reported Friday.
President Trump told CNN’s Jake Tapper on Monday, “We haven’t even started hitting them hard. The big wave hasn’t even happened. The big one is coming soon.”

Trump also warned in a Truth Social post on Saturday, the day of the initial attack, “Iran just stated that they are going to hit very hard today, harder than they have ever hit before. THEY BETTER NOT DO THAT, HOWEVER, BECAUSE IF THEY DO, WE WILL HIT THEM WITH A FORCE THAT HAS NEVER BEEN SEEN BEFORE!”
Meanwhile, Israel Defense Forces (IDF) Chief of the General Staff LTG Eyal Zamir said Friday:
“I am in continuous contact with my American counterparts…We are fighting based on shared interests and shared values. We are fighting shoulder to shoulder. They are true friends. Through synchronized action, we are stripping the regime of its military capabilities, strategically isolating them and bringing them to a point of weakness unlike any it has known. This is truly a historic cooperation.”
