While one of the missiles failed in flight, the other was intercepted by a US warship, sources claimed.
Sir moved to allow US access to the base – marking an escalation in UK involvement in the conflict and potentially putting more of a target on Brits’ heads.
But the PM has been criticised for his slow response to the conflict with President Trump saying: “It’s been a very late response from the UK.”
The US president also took aim at his allies, branding them “cowards” for failing to back his bid to reopen the blockaded Strait of Hormuz route.
