Nuclear-powered Royal Navy submarine arrives in Arabian Sea - with capacity to launch strikes on Iran if conflict escalates

HMS Anson, which is fitted with Tomahawk Block IV land-attack missiles with a range of 1,000 miles and Spearfish heavyweight torpedoes, left port in Perth on March 6 and is believed to be taking up position in the deep waters of the northern Arabian Sea.

It would mean British forces have the capacity to launch attacks on Iran if the conflict escalates.

I've wondered if those left calling the shots in the Iran regime might destroy their own nuclear power plant to purposely create a nuclear catastrophe that would affect much of the region... just for spite. Of course, if they did, they'd try to pin the attack on someone else.
