Boris Johnson is gathering key ministers for crisis talks today as the Iran standoff threatens to spiral out of control - with threats from Tehran to kill British troops, APA reports citing Daily Mail.
The PM is back in Downing Street after his Caribbean break, but finds himself walking a tightrope between Donald Trump and other allies who want to ease tensions.
Breaking his silence last night, Mr Johnson offered support to the president saying Britain 'will not lament' the death of Qassem Soleimani.
He said the general, killed in a US drone strike in Baghdad on Friday, had played a role in the deaths of thousands of innocent people and was a 'threat to all our interests'.
But he also appealed to both Mr Trump and Iran for calm, urging both sides to encourage de-escalation.
