British Prime Minister Keir Starmer held talks Tuesday evening with Saudi Arabia’s Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman regarding the continuing Middle East crisis, according to a spokesperson from Downing Street.

During the conversation, Starmer expressed Britain’s backing of Saudi Arabia amid the U.S.-Israeli conflict with Iran and briefed the crown prince about additional UK defensive military equipment being sent to the region, the spokesperson reported.

“Iran’s ongoing attacks, including on critical national infrastructure, were appalling,” Starmer said.

The Prime Minister also addressed maritime security concerns, with Downing Street quoting Starmer as saying: “Following the UK-led joint statement last week, the UK was now working with partners on what a viable plan could look like to ensure the flow of goods through the key maritime route.”
