The UK was not officially informed about Israel’s attack on Iran before it happened and provided no support to the mission, it is understood, highlighting the deteriorating relationship between the two countries.
Diplomats said it appeared Israel no longer considered the UK to be a “reliable partner” after Sir Keir Starmer placed sanctions on two far-right Israeli ministers this week.
Military planners inside the Ministry of Defence were braced for the strikes on Thursday night. However, the UK appeared to have been cut out of the loop on the operation, despite being involved in previous strikes.
If Britain is out Canada is on ice for good.
