mr. speaker, it did not succeed. in support of israel's own defensive action, the united kingdom joined a u.s. led effort with france and partners in the region, which intercepted the missiles, saving lives in israel. we sent additional typhoons to the region as our existing operations and our forces destroyed iranian drones. we provided important intelligence for our partners. our pilots put themselves in harm's way to preserve peace and stability. i spoke to the raf, they are the best of the best and i know the whole house will join me. with this attack, iran has shown its true colors. they eat so chaos in their own backyard, destabilizing the middle east. this -- our aim is to support stability because it is right for the region. in the middle east has a direct effect on security at home, so we are working to de-escalate the situation and prevent bloodshed. we want to see cooler heads prevail and we are directing diplomatic efforts to that. i spoke to my g7 leaders and we are united in condemnation of this attack.
