The drone attack to Akrotiri, affecting the LCA services came about two hours after the UK Government announced the approval for partial use of their air bases by the USA.

The alleged Iranian drone attack would had left Iran 9 hours prior with a perfect timing before the announcement.

Instead there are 4 territories from which it would have reached Cyprus within two hours: Turkey, Syria, Lebanon and Israel.

Now we hear a lot of news regarding the USA moving assets away from their bases in Spain. Spain have been very critical of the Government of Israel actions lately and not supportive of military action in Iran.

How likely is an attack then in the few days in one of these Spanish/USA bases? The relevance here would be effect on Gibraltar and Seville services.
