Iran maintains a sophisticated missile program, which is currently considered the largest and most diverse in the Middle East. While recent escalations have highlighted the reach of their arsenal, current assessments indicate that Iranian missiles do not have the range to strike the United Kingdom. Most of Iran’s long-range ballistic missiles are limited to approximately 2,000 to 2,500 kilometers, while reaching the UK would require a range exceeding 4,000 kilometers. Although Iran continues to develop space launch technology that could be adapted for intercontinental use, their current operational focus remains on regional deterrence.
- Iran’s existing ballistic missile inventory has a maximum operational range of roughly 2,500 kilometers.
- The United Kingdom remains outside the reach of Iran’s current missile technology due to the distance involved.
- Iran’s development of satellite launch vehicles is closely monitored, as the technology is transferable to Intercontinental Ballistic Missiles (ICBMs).
- Recent military activity saw the UK assist in the interception of Iranian drones and missiles launched toward Israel.
- The primary security concern for European nations involves the potential for future technological advancements rather than immediate missile threats to Western Europe.

I mean that you are trying to get UK involved
In 2021 Iran placed a 220kg satellite in a 500km orbit.
It won’t happen.
oil only needs to be payed for in Chinese yuan. not petro dollar
Spoiler alert: no
UK is not stupid to fall for Israel provoking anymore. Iran has fought with great principals against these babies killers.
Israel found a patsy in trump to start this war. Plain and simple.
If anyone bomb London that will be Israel. They are The Terrorists and threat to the entire world. World must come together against these barbaric illegal state
I remember reading somewhere that the cost of getting fuel from the North Sea is just not worth the cost. The supply from that area has already peaked and not worth trying to get anymore out.
DPRK has ICBM serial production, why wouldn't oil producing Iran?
Rutte shall be having a squeaky bum time in his HQ. Interesting architectural building is the NATO HQ. Fourth Reich office.
There is something poetic about the UK overthrowing Iran democracy for oil only to end up in its missiles range
False flag. Israel trying to pull Europe into the war.
Noooo
Can UK stand up to Trumpstine and Israeli, when we were saw thousands of comments in support for Starmer when he did. This is an illegal war.
In a word, HA
No reason to fire on UK as it's not even involved in it
Why would Iran want to strike Europe ? They want to win this conflict, not draw Europe into a war that they are not interested in, I would not make sence !
Can Israel missiles reach UK and European countries, you guys should seriously consider it 😂, they have nukes.
Already Russian & chinese intelligence found out, Israel is behind that missile to that Island, trying to make your guys believe Iran behind it & Iran never fired a single at urs, wake up ur intelligence gang 😂
Why are you not reporting that British has send their weapons to gaza to help the Israeli. Britain had that coming
Idiotic , evil propaganda.
The cost of heating oil for rural areas has more than doubled since this conflict, oil customers are always forgotten
Is it true that French and British missiles can reach Iran? If it is then the Iranian people must demand that their government do something about it and protect them. You may as well be listening to a broadcast straight from Tel-Aviv. The good old beeb is now nothing but a Zionist propaganda outlet.
Stop pushing your false flag propaganda.

To all you lefties suffering from severe DTS…FAFO! You’re all very slow learners.
Outrageous that we have involved ourselves in this war alongside the orange felon.
We in the UK stand more chance of being hit by a thunder bolt .
Everyone knows that missiles are not going to hit the UK, yet the media still pump out this alarmist garbage. The missile that will hit most households is the BBC licence fee, that’s the missile we need to shoot down.
But Iranians will fight for their father land if the civilians deaths start to mount up, payratiosm will kick in. No one wants to see their land over run by foreigners
I would guess iran can definitely hit Europe 😮.
BBC is acting like N@@zi kind of propaganda. Shameless lies. It wants to loot Iran.
Yes obviously and they will probably buy a nuke from Pakistan or North Korea as soon as this mess is over.
Beings this is a illegal war I think Europe should stay out of it iran said friendly country can get oil if they pay in rubles or yuan 😮
The Missiles have No.10 on them. 😂😮😊
The uk type 45 daring class destroyer is the best air defence destroyer in the world. More than capable of destroying anything Iran has.
The U.S. Burke class destroyer is the best multi role destroyer
The uk can defend itself
Stop asking these stupid questions. You don’t have to be pro Hamas, Houthi or whatever or antisemitic to see the blatant hypocrisy that’s happening in the whole region. Iran makes noise about it. Yes: it had problems with fundamentalistic leaders. Why is it legit to bomb the civilians for this? Or is it about oil? The petrodollar? Nuclear weapons? Israel’s ambitions to have control over the gulf region to force and secure their Greater Israel fantasies? If Suez also closes, Egypt is next (after Lebanon). Israel’s regime needs to be investigated and prosecuted. The trauma spiral of hatred, annihilation, and revenge has to stop somewhere.
UK genocide beginners…i understand why they are support america for this war…
So they're preparing UK population to enter war…. Don't think they will waste energy on UK. Israel is the target..
Seems like natopeans are more afraid of iran than Russia 😁
So,? Russia can attack London, North Korea can. Lot of other countries can attack London. It doesn't mean we have to participate on an illigal war. This war is Nathaniahus own making.
UK don't need to go to war against a Shia country. They already cornered by Sunni Muslims.
ZIONIST propaganda
MASTER MANIPULATERS
Threat to world Peace US of Israel.. In bombed and murdered and maimed millions.. Lebanon, Syria, Qatar, Iraq, Venezuela, West Bank, Gaza, Cuba..whose next??
Biggest, biggest threat is ISRAEL.. LOOK AT THE FACTS.
AND Cypress UK base helped provide intelligence that lead to murder of thousands of Palestinians.
So what? Russia and China North Korea and more have missiles that can go around the world
Trying to force feed fears into people minds… Great journalistic integrity.
U really think Irans going to use them,maybe,only if they are provoked,we just like to exaggerate things,thats all.
