The British Palestine Committee said the base was used to transport American military cargo, including components for F-35 fighter jets used by Israel in Gaza. MP David Lammy demanded that Britain reveal the truth about its involvement in the conflict.

These accusations could damage Cyprus’ international image, provoke protests and worsen relations with Arab countries, which would negatively affect tourism and investment.

The bases can also become a target for attacks, posing a threat to security on the island.
