NICOSIA - Tensions in the Middle East continue to escalate.
Iran is extending its missile and drone attacks beyond Israel to targets across the region.
Even US and British assets in Cyprus have been targeted.
British forces were responding to a suspected drone strike at its RAF Akrotiri military base in Cyprus, the defence ministry said Monday, with no casualties reported.
Britain agreed on Sunday to allow the United States to use British military bases to fire "defensive" strikes at Iranian missile systems.
