UK prepares for evacuation as tensions in Middle East rise

Britain's Royal Marines are prepared to oversee a mass evacuation of British nationals from the Middle East if Iran decides to launch a missile attack on Israel.

According to a report in the Daily Mail, commandos have been conducting reconnaissance along the Lebanese coast in preparation for a sea rescue operation.

Defense Secretary Grant Shapps told the Mail the UK was ready to help British nationals trapped in the area. The Foreign Office has advised all British citizens to leave Lebanon as a precautionary measure.

US President Joe Biden warned on Friday that there was a high risk of an attack occurring “soon.”

Meanwhile, there are also reports suggesting that Iran has opposed US intervention in the region. The evacuation plan, known as Operation Meteoric, would be led by Britain's 'Green Berets' with support from the Royal Navy and Royal Air Force.

A Marine team from 30 Commando was sent to the area for Operation Meteoric. This is similar to the historic Operation Dynamo in 1940, which evacuated Allied soldiers from Dunkirk.

Tensions were heightened by the April 1 attack on the Iranian consulate in Damascus, which was reportedly carried out by Israel. Iran has repeatedly threatened to retaliate either directly on its territory or by deploying proxy forces in the region.

Recent reports suggest that Iran could use drones, cruise missiles and ballistic missiles to pose a threat to civil air travel.

In a worst-case scenario, civilians stranded on the beach could be rescued by British Royal Fleet auxiliary vessels in the eastern Mediterranean, with support from RAF Typhoon jets based in Cyprus.

Shapps said he was confident the UK was ready to help its citizens amid heightened tensions, despite details of the plan being classified for security reasons.
