BRITISH ARMED FORCES SHOOT DOWN IRANIAN DRONES AS CONFLICT EXPANDS, AS FOCUS TURNS TO CHINA S SUPPLY OF WEAPONS TO IRAN, MAY DECIDE TO HELP IRAN DRAIN US OF ITS LAST MISSILES TO MAKE WAR WITH CHINA IMPOSSIBLE

Fuelling fears the US and IDF are running low on interceptors, British forces have been used to shoot down Iranian drones.

The British armed forces are also low on air defence missiles and ammo.

IRAN WAR IS ALSO A PROXY WAR TARGETTING CHINA

CHINA MAY WELL STEP UP ITS WEAPONS SUPPLIES TO IRAN TO DRAIN US WEAPONS STOCK PILES AND MAKE WAR WITH IT IMPOSSIBLE

The IDF claims to have wiped out half of Iran s missile stockpiles but whether they have and whether thatis enough remains to be seen.

Iran has launched six successive waves of missiles at Israel and US bases pralyzing Israel.

That strongly suggests  that Iran still has significant  numbers of missiles and drones and launchers.

It has not used its most powerful missiles yet preferring to wait until the US and IDF air missiles are depleted, it seems.

Iran just needs to have a thousand more missiles than the US, IDF and NATO have interceptros, and it spells a military catastrophe.

The wild card is China.

If China flies in hundreds or even thousands of missiles to Iran, then Iran can certainly win

China certainly has the capacity to produce thousands of missiles a day.

China de facto declared itself on the side of it major energy partner, Iran, just before the conflict eruped, supplyng satellite data as well as antiship missiles and attack drones

As a supplier of oil to China using the Yuan, Iran is vital for its economy and security.

China has also supplied air defence batteries to Iran.

From media 

British forces have been involved in “taking down” Iranian drones, the Defence Secretary has said.

John Healey did not say what weapon was used in the defensive operation but said forces were involved in “active action”.

“We’ve stepped up our defensive forces in the Middle East,” he told Sky News.

“We’re taking down the drones that are menacing either our bases, our people, or our allies. And this is a really serious and deteriorating situation.”

Mr Healey noted that around 300 UK armed forces personnel were “within several hundred yards” of drones and missiles that Iran fired at a US military base in Bahrain, while two ballistic missiles were “fired in the direction of Cyprus” on Saturday.

“It demonstrates how our bases, our personnel, military and civilians at the moment are at risk with a regime that is increasingly indiscriminate, widespread and uncontrolled in the attacks it’s mounting,” he said.
