Iran targets British-US base and its main nuclear enrichment site is struck again

CAIRO (AP) — Iran targeted a joint U.K.-U.S. base in the Indian Ocean, and Iran's main nuclear enrichment site was struck again, as the war in the Middle East entered its fourth week.

Iran's attack on the Diego Garcia air base — about 2,500 miles (4,000 kilometers) away — suggested Tehran has missiles that can go farther than it had previously acknowledged, or that it had used its space program for an improvised launch.

Iran’s capital saw heavy airstrikes overnight and into the morning, residents said, as thousands of worshippers converged on Tehran’s grand mosque to mark the end of the holy month of Ramadan.

Israeli Defense Minister Israel Katz said attacks would “increase significantly" next week. He spoke shortly after fragments from an Iranian missile slammed into an empty kindergarten near Tel Aviv.
