UK to send more fighter jets to Middle East - as PM responds to Trump criticism | Sky News coverage

On the sixth day of the war, Israel and Iran have launched new strikes, with a US oil tanker coming under attack.

The first UK government chartered flight for Britons seeking to leave the Middle East has departed after a failed take-off last night due to "operational reasons."

Meanwhile, UK armed forces in Cyprus have told Sky News they are embarrassed that HMS Dragon won't sail to the region until next week.
