Iran launches missiles, UK flight fails to leave Oman
Reports indicate that Iran maintained its assaults on states in the Gulf region, acting in reprisal for recent US-Israeli military operations carried out against its own territory. During this period, a flight commissioned by the UK government, intended for the repatriation of British citizens based in Oman, was unable to depart on schedule. The rescue aircraft is currently projected to depart Oman today.
