- Britain has "grave concerns" over Iran's nuclear programme and believes Israel has the right to self-defence, Prime Minister Keir Starmer told his Israeli counterpart Benjamin Netanyahu on Friday, Starmer's spokesperson said.

"The prime minister was clear that Israel has a right to self-defence and set out the UK's grave concerns about Iran’s nuclear programme," the spokesperson said in a statement after Israel launched large-scale attacks on Iran earlier on Friday.
